    Patent-free… it is more that you are granted to make whatever you want unless you sue them for patent infringement, in which they will forbid your free use of their patents.

      So kind of like GPLv3 where you get a free license to the patent as long as you obey the license terms and carry out your responsibilities to open source that it outlines?
