What is the word coming to... oops sorry, world.
ROTFL
Try telling us now that the patent system works, oh wintrolly ones?
XML documents patented? Will these patent trolls be going after openoffice
next?
One particular approach to using XML documents. When you think of the
flexibility and number of uses... the mind boggles. Imagine patents on
all of them - they may as well not bothered inventing XML at all!
Oops! I've just posted a dupe.
Either way, Microsoft will have this overturned. It will not have become valid

It hopefully will lead to a rethink about the USPTO.
