I regret i cannot recall any particular case, but IIRC it HAS happened. What we need is a lawyer.
Regardless, this is a matter for the courts, which means we have to spend money fighting about it, which isn't cool.

Please show me a prior court case where this has happend?
Even if it has I wouldnt want to fight like this. Patent law is not a bad thing. If I develop something at my own cost/time and it is adopted by everyone on the planet and becomes "industry standard" I am still due my fair share until the patent runs out.
Thanks Steven
