Talk:Blackboard v. Desire2Learn
Please contribute here with the latest news and analysis of this case. Desire2Learn is going to have to spend a lot of money to defend itself, even if the patent is ultimately ruled invalid due to the invention not meeting the statutory requirements for patentability. Such a lawsuit aimed at Moodle or Sakai would be quite ruinous. By the way, I am an inactive lawyer (no, not disbarred, just not practising anymore :-), and this seems like a great way to keep the community up-to-date. --Mike Strong 13:21, 3 August 2006 (WST)
I guess this is different from the mother-of-all-prior-art pages.
But all the same...what can we do to help? Perhaps if Desire2Learn or someone could put a list of things that they want researched then people might take on a portion.
