Many patents are filed for defensive reasons. Ie. If I don't patent it,
then someone else will, and then I won't be able to use the idea I came
up with. The other defensive reason is so that if company A tries to

Richard and all,
Open source software for some uses does provide for some
utility. By a opposite token, open source software for other
uses is an inhearent privacy and security risk for obvious reasons
so indeed such also misses the point. I am in favor of any Good

I have never argued in favor of open source software.

Richard and all,
I agree largely. Very little software warrents patenting. Protection
of any authors software can much better and easily be done in other
ways. Open source is not the total answer either as some types of
software in open source format would be ill advised.

Of course, I should have spotted this.

The operative word here is uncertainty. A patent-holder creates
uncertainty. How should an SDO respond? I'm not sure. I'm only sure

That's the nature of software
