If this posting is correct, the sudden demise of all software patents in the US (apart from cloud computing patents) seems to be at hand.

Greetings, Simon.
It'd be interesting to hear what's Sun's position on this:

But I'm especially concerned about the threat of Microsoft's Midori and the prospects of a FOSS alternative.
I believe FOSS has to be on top of this new form of competition trying to lock in grid computing.
How/Where/When should we start a relevant discussion ?
best,
vruz
