That's the case in Germany wrt trademarks. I very much doubt that it
applies to patents.

Hi,
It is my non-lawyer point of view that the Microsoft OSP is absolutely
irrelevant and that in the soon to be EU law may actually be a complete
red herring, since it may soon be the case that you don't have to be the
owner of patents to make the authorites do the enforcement.
