I see. Then I hope for some reply saying so so that I can give up my hope that I might get a good idea from them...
Who is a known contact to SFLC in PostgreSQL community? Can we expect response from SFLC if he/she contacts them?
I am - however as you've seen from Tom, the core team has already discussed this and come to the conclusion that the risks and downsides to accepting code under patent far outweighs the benefitsm so I won't be contacting them about this.
We do thank you (and Fujitsu) for your efforts though.
