Yes, I know feeding patent parasites is unpleasant. But we come back to
the central question here: do we want ideological purity at the expense of
victory, or do we want actual victory so that *we* get to effectively set
the terms of software development in the future?
I know which side of that question *I* come down on...
It's a hollow and short lived victory if your payment ends up funding
lawsuits against other open source software providers. Or if you set a
precedent which pressures others to pay up too.
Really, given Fedora's stance on non-free software I'm not sure what
you're trying to achieve here. If anyone thinks that buying a license
for lame is the way forward, let them pass their hat around; I doubt it
will be a fedora.
