I am a little confused as to your argument Bruce. What is wrong with a
button or link on www.postgresql.org that publicizes a page on
www.postgresql.org the describes the communities stance on software patents.

The page could also of course have links as reference to other
legitimate anti-patent links (this is where I could see some tension).
