The article talks a lot about Groklaw's decline and accurately concludes does Groklaw must end now because otherwise it will slide into complete irrelevance. I concur. It has become an echo chamber for a small group of people, some of whom

The ZDNet article concerning Groklaw's censorship quoted a plurality of persons, not just me. I was one of them, but there were several others.

Your first paragraph is, once again, a complete strawman as opposed to what I said or implied. Not granting a license to a patent on FRAND terms is certainly anticompetitive, but not necessarily illegal. If, however, a monopolist does so in

You're now trying, not for the first time in this discussion, quite desperately to pretend not to understand what I say. You previously just phrased my 3rd option differently to artifically create a 4th option. Now you don't take into accou

On LWN, a user pointed out that text analysis tools show that some Groklaw articles were definitely written by male authors and others definitely by female authors: http://lwn.net/Articles/437741/ This is yet another clear indication that

Your point 4 is just a different way to phrase my point 3, the worst option of all. Similarly, your distinction between a "community open-source project" and someone bundling it with hardware makes no sense. Companies bundling open source s

It can be read by the general public, but a tweet beginning with @ is shown only to the addressed person and to those who jointly follow the sender and the addressed person. So that's quite different from something that all followers see

There can be different objectives of informing someone of potential infringement: 1) making someone aware but saying right away that it's fine (that's what IBM as a self-declared friend and protector of open source should have done in this

Contrary to my statement being "an interesting spin", your statement displays a total lack of understanding for antitrust law and patent law. Worse than that, you don't even seem to understand that antitrust regulators aren't courts of law.

I didn't make note of it on Twitter for the general public -- I just informed a TechRights skeptic (@verofakto) of it. Concerning the article you linked to, here's an additional link: http://fosspatents.blogspot.com/2010/04/id-rather-discu

You are wrong about IBM not having been the aggressor. Here's a documentation of the entire correspondence: http://fosspatents.blogspot.com/2010/04/turbohercules-entire... TurboHercules didn't make a "request" to IBM as a "bluff". Instead

You make a lot of good points but overstate Groklie's influence on the professional press. It came down to a few journalists who wanted to present themselves to their audiences as open source activists. Serious media didn't care. A few days

During all those years Groklie never once criticized IBM for any of its wrongdoings. In connection with IBM's software patent threat letter to TurboHercules, Groklie even said in a headline that IBM was "free to sue the pants off TurboHercu

It remains to be seen whether this is true, or just a scheme to provoke an outpouring of support ("support" in various ways, shapes and forms).
