1) - Impai doesn't care. They will take care of me if I give them 1000$/year -
2) - Fight the patent ? He's not officially recognise as an non profit organisation.
3) - ACACIA will agree to license for 1000$/year and I will not be sued for those "supposed" past fee I owe them.
4) IMPAI will only defend the BIG ONES - companies that makes millions a year - But they won't do anything for the small companies like mine.

1) IMPA is accepting membership applications for $100/year and accepting donations
2) Yup, i haven't reached the pledge drive goal, so my ACLU-type approach of directly helping the little guys defend themselves is just a neat concept.
3) If you make less than $50K gross, then the fee is $1,500 PER YEAR. If you make more, it costs more (

4) The Defense Fund does have a buy-in of 35K, but they are trying to figure out how to incorporate smaller amounts.
