[TriLUG] bluestripe monitoring

[Daniel Sterling]

patents by definition talk about the working of the technology; you
get a patent to show everyone what you've done (and to get money from
other people that want to do the same thing)

can you let me know what patents you're referring to?

Thanks,
Dan
