Keep patent policy as it is (please)

Dear Sir/Madam,

Please do not change the patent policy of the
World Wide Web Consortium.

The foundation of the Internet is in the free
and open sharing of information.  Indeed, it is
the reason for the explosive growth mentioned
in W3C documentation.

Any move away from complete freedom of Internet
standards strikes at the very core of the Internet
and will impede it's long term growth and appl;ication.
