This sounds very encouraging. Maybe large corporation are jumping into the
Open Source pool before they get left out and miss out. How reassuring!
Around November 10th there was a story on CNN that stated:
"Three of the world?s biggest electronics companies ? IBM, Sony and Philips
? have joined forces with the two largest Linux software distributors to
create a company for sharing Linux patents, royalty-free."
