I spoke with my colleges about Ksplice and one very interesting question 
popped up:

   What will happen with our fork efforts if Oracle suddenly patent the Ksplice 
software ?

I know that in Europe we don't have the problem with software pattents and the 
GPL will protect us from any issues like that.

However what is the situation in the US and other countries that have software 
pattents ?
