It was good of you, but you have less of a risk of being sued than Google does. They need a war chest to negotiate with.

- jacquesm 17y ago> you have less of a risk of being sued than Google does. In fact, a company called Acacia tried just that. When they found out the parent company was European they lost interest.
- richardw 17y agoSo you have less of a risk than Google does?
- jacquesm 17y agoI think so. European courts are generally (for the moment, at least) not too impressed by software patents, you'd have to have an iron clad one to make it stnad up in court here. We don't have the equivalent of an 'eastern Texas district', where the courts are favorably impressed by anything that carries a patent office stamp.
