[News] (Groklaw) Microsoft's Patent Promise "Worse Than Useless"

SFLC's Bradley M. Kuhn's Letter to the FOSS Development Community Regarding
Microsoft's Patent Promise

,----[ Quote ]
| The Software Freedom Law Center's CTO Bradley Kuhn has issued a
| statement regarding the Novell-Microsoft agreements and how they will 
| impact FOSS developers. They have analyzed in particular Microsoft's Patent 
| Pledge for Non-Compensated Developers and see little value and in fact say 
| it's worse than useless, because it creates an illusion of safety and 
| because it limits severely what that developer is allowed to do with his 
| work.
