"IBM is also expected to detail three multiparty efforts to increase review
of patent applications, in part by tapping open-source developers and
collaborative software. Partners include the Patent Office and the Open
Source Development Labs (OSDL), an industry consortium that launched a
"patent commons" for open-source communities in November 2005."
