Parece que el círculo de .net comienza a cerrarse... Microsoft planea patentar algunas de sus API's. ¿Cómo afectará esto a proyectos como Mono?

".Net patent could stifle standards effort":

Microsoft is in the process of applying for a wide-ranging patent that covers a variety of functions related to its .Net initiative.

If approved as is, the patent would cover application programming interfaces (APIs) that allow actions related to accessing the network, handling Extensible Markup Language (XML), and managing data from multiple sources. APIs are the hooks in software that allow applications to work with another system.
