Summary:
Bergelt: Because of the legacy of Richard Stallman in the, when you're trying to drive a new paradigm it almost requires a certain level of extremism and I think, you know, so I am not in any way saying that Richard Stallman's view was a defective one given the times but I think a more balanced view that we now have the benefit of time and being able to adopt and take is that it's not about throwing the baby out with the bathwater, all intellectual property is not bad and to be rejected by the open source community. I am not anti patent, I am clearly focused on improving the quality of patents and ensuring that there is greater granularity in what ultimately does get granted by the patent and trademark offices around the world so that the patent system is back to what it was designed to be.
