Hi:  Here's Register article on Red Hat Patent Policy:
http://213.40.196.64/content/4/25505.html

Wonder if Drew, or someone from RH can pass the word up the line, that they 
really, really need to go to: http://www.creativecommons.org/ and set up with 
the copyright options available to them.  No better example of how this 
organization can make a huge difference to Open Source Advocates.  In other 
words, a 17 year patent, vs. perpetuity is a no-brainer!  Now, That's a 
Defense against Abusers, eh?
Thanks,
