exactly, by letting the open source community use the patent protected software, IBM can be assured that no other company can use the develloped software that comes forth of it, and in the same time they have other people who "researh" new uses for their patents.
I think it is really clever to let the open source community benefit by allowing them to use the patents.
it's a win win situation.
