That's how software patents work...
Personally, I believe it is safe to assume:
. Fedora's commitment to truly free software will continue -
including software free of legal problems caused by patents.
. The decision to include Mono has been adequately reviewed

thanks for patting us on the head and telling us not to worry about it
but I do not accept your assurances no more than I believe the terrorist
alert warning level. So why don't you shelve the platitudes about 'Many
Smart People' and get some answers that are both fulfilling and,
unbelievably, the truth.
