    Justement, la standardisation oblige à ne pas abuser des brevets, et surtout à ne pas faire de discrimination dans l'attribution de ceux ci


    Extraits de la conférence de presse d'avant-hier :
    Ballmer (41:46): if you want to use Linux, let's make sure that you get a version of Linux that respects our intellectual property

    Avocat de M$ (51.15): The cover net, that will run for example from Microsoft to customers, applies to the code and the patent issues on Linux as it exists today. It will (chuchottements, et l'avocat se rattrape) In Suse Linux as it exists today...

    Ballmer (52:00): Novell is acting as a proxy for its customers, and it's only for its customers. So this does not apply to any forms of Linux other than Novell's Suse Linux. And if people want to have patent peace, and interoperability they'll look at Novell Suse Linux. If they make other choices they have all of the compliance of intellectual property issues that are associated with that.


    C'est de la discrimination là non ?
