,----[ Quote ]
| In a fascinating post on the aftermath of the Eolas decision <
| http://blogs.zdnet.com/BTL/?p=3114 >, our own David Berlind note
| that some patent holders are becoming friends of open source.

| After losing to Eolas, he writes, Microsoft was forced to drop
| some functionality from Internet Explorer, but Firefox was not.
