RE: Patent portfolio has been changing/parserI agree that the portfolio has to continue to grow and change or else we catch the MSD syndrome. Having said that, it seems to me that one has to sympathise with the enemy (MacNamara in "Fog of War") in order to avoid mutual anihilation. The licenses have to be crafted in such a way as to protect the customers from repeated litigation during the life of the agreement. I bet this is proving to be more difficult than expected because the portfolio is changing so rapidily.
