What *really* got Pamela pissed off at me was my suggestion/question about whether OSRM was taking the information produced by the posters to Groklaw and incorporating that information into their "product".

She is also the "Director of Litigation Risk Research" at OSRM.
I'm sorry -- no, I'm not: What overlap is there between the accumulation of research by individuals at Groklaw, relative to Pamela's role as a Director of Research at OSR

Wait for the trials in progress (not involving us) to finish, waiting "in fear" (ok, syspense is more like it, our buisness doesn't hings on this. but not everyone has that position)? Or to actually do some patent research and come up with prio
