Red Hat has been quietly attempting great feats that nobody else does anything more than hand-wave about. All the titans of industry-- IBM, Microsoft, Sun, etc pontificate solemnly on how bad software patents are, and how broken the patent systems are worldwide. But it seems that Red Hat is the only one trying to actually do something about it.

Don't make me laugh, IBM is probably the company owning the most software patents and Microsoft is the company who lobbied the most to make software patents enforceable in the EU. Those have more lobbyists than FSF/FFII, sadly.

Quoting: pontificate
Also a term used to solemnly declare how bad auto manufacturing can be.
