Well said.  There are so many USA patents, if you tried to remove every
piece of software from main that might be judged to practice the
teachings of some patent, you'd do a *lot* of removing.

Nevertheless, possible patents on Mono and what Novell/Microsoft's
strategy is with regard to releasing this software is something to watch
and be concerned about.
