Free QA for Patent Trolls? Why?

“The Peer to Patent Project looks like insanely bad strategy to
me. I don’t get it.

“Normally when free software people come up with some…
unusual… idea, my reaction is ‘go for it.’ Stuff sometimes works,
and failure is part of stigmergic learning. What if that
Indianapolis 500 car had come from behind and won the race?
Remember, people who have wacky ideas are motivated to implement
their own ideas and might not be motivated to be yet another
contributor to a sensible idea. So it’s usually not do wacky idea
vs. do sensible idea, it’s usually do wacky idea vs. do nothing.
So, go for it.

you doing…?'”
