The fact it has nothing to do with Linux Kernel, not even remotely as the patent is never, no matter how wide you stretch it, is going to cower any technology in the kernel, makes this a FUD post, since the poster didn't bother to explain it. It's still unclear what the patent actually mean, might be multi monitor, virtual desktop or maybe sticky windows. Only thing clear is that it can't be the Linux Kernel it's about.
