Unusual patent number
It's because it's a reissued patent. The patent number is 05367685.

Private / Protected
From the page:
Prior art: This is C++ private / protected.
No, those apply at the level of individual members - not classes.
Whoever made that comment regarding not classes is incorrect. Private/protected can be applied to members AND classes in C++. As well as C# and probably some other languages.
Sublicensing and free software licenses
The part that reads "Further, this grant does not include the right to sublicense. That is incompatible with any free software licence and means that only meeting all of the six onerous requirements would actually grant a patent license" needs some expansion or clarification as to why not allowing sublicensing is incompatible with free software licenses.
Consider that GPLv3 explicitly prohibits sublicensing (last sentence of section 2, "Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under the conditions stated below. Sublicensing is not allowed; section 10 makes it unnecessary."). Section 10 is the section that says when you convey the GPLv3 work, the recipient receives a license from the original licensor.
That seems to indicate that it is OK in a copyright license to prohibit sublicensing yet still be compatible with free software. I don't see why it would be different in a patent license.
- That's a good question. I'll trying to find an answer. (Or if someone else has the answer, I would be interested to hear it.) Ciaran 17:56, 17 August 2010 (UTC)
