Blackboard's eLearning patent is going to be reviewed

Flosse Posse commented in August on the absurdity of Blackboard’s eLearning patent claim. Now action is being taken, as the Software Freedom Law Center is demanding that the patent be reviewed and revoked if necessary.
The power of the networked community of people can be seen in the huge article on Wikipedia on the History of virtual learning environments which goes back to 1728. This massive collection of references was one reason that the SFLC decided to go ahead with this action. Well done, everyone!
And why is it that Microsoft seems to be involved in all of these sleezy patent claims, like the SCO vs. IBM (or the Linux community), which was resolved yesterday and SCO lost royally.
