I find it highly unlikely they'd go after an open source project that
has no money to fork over. If they were to stoop that low, they'd go
after any company that's making money from using it in the same way
NetApp tried to sue Sun for ZFS' use of copy on write. And that's
where the big money lies -- hence Oracle vs. Google re Java, Dalvik,
Android, etc.
