Surely GPL 7 causes the same problem (admittedly under a different set
of circumstances)?
Is that arbitrary?
It's also a practical difficulty, as we hope to be able to archive
debian
releases in their released state:
http://archive.debian.org/debian-archive/
Which is also a problem if a patent becomes actively enforced having
been previously docile.
So, is this practical difficulty already solved? Where has it been
discussed before? I'm failing to find it in lists searches, given what
hot topics patents have been.
