Here is an opportunity to fight the new Imperialism.
Intellectual Property.
Ruby exists in the narrow space provided by the fact it is too small a
target for patent challenges.
If(when) Ruby usage grows large enough to attract hostile attention, Matz
would not financially survive a flood of patent suits.
Asia should view WIPO as Imperialism and Colonialism taken into a new
domain, intellectual property.
The West is basically saying to Asia, as they did in the Bad Old days of
Colonialism, we will let you rent the property that we have stolen from
you.
They may be your own ideas, you may have developed them yourselves, but
you will have to pay us rent for them.
Please express, in a firm but civil manner, your opinions at...
