Suggested to add a field:

patent expires:

indicating also the country.

I think it would be good to adopt a standard format to summarize each
case of patent trouble.  By having each description start with some
standard items, we could make it easier for people to get an overall
picture of the situation.

Here is a suggetsed list of standard items; do you have any comments
or suggestions?


Free package(s) attacked:

Who developed it:

Feature or functionality endangered:

What the patent covers:

Patent holders:

Patent numbers:

Outcome:  (this could be, "Attack repulsed" or "Free software
now unavailable in LIST OF COUNTRIES" or some other brief
description of the current state of affairs).


After these items, you could attach whatever additional information
you would like to publish.  So this does not limit what information
you can provide, just helps standardize it.


What do you think?
