Pamela Jones and Groklaw, she is supporting it, mainly on the belief of
"patents bad" standing.
I say "Patents BAD" only if they are used for keeping progress from
happening. "Patents GOOD" if they are used to promote the industry and
are freely usable... like Patent pledges and giving Patents to the OIN
or other similar organizations.
