another quote from the article:
"The thing that's exciting to me is that the (US)PTO sort of made the ruling on the basis of how much interest there is in this issue on the Internet," said Dale Dougherty, a vice president of online publishing and research at Sebastapol, Calif.-based publisher O'Reilly & Associates, who posted news of the USPTO's decision on the O'Reilly Web site. "And it seems that they felt they had to respond to it."
does this whole Acacia episode not constitute significant interest on the internet, worthy of a quick re-examination of their patent?
