And what I meant is that this amounts to absolutely nothing and shouldn't even
be mentioned. You have a patent system bogged down with tens of thousands
software patents (not all belonging to Microsoft) full of obscure legalese that
can be applied to anything. To take a "quick look" is just ridiculous. And
nobody sane, much less a lawyer, would claim to be sure that certain code is not
infringing someone elses patent.
