I don't think it's a major issue. Even if MS do think we infringe on
the patent it would be laughable for them to try to do anything about
it given that our rules implementation has provably existed in a
leading FOSS project for a decade or more.
Yep, sounds about right. Not being a patent-attorney though, I thought
it better to mention than not. ;)
