Kopete's website shutdown for patent violations

Anyone visit the Kopete website lately? http://www.kopete.org

Time to move the KDE headquarters to Canada, where one cannot patent software. They could develop to their heart's content, being stationed here. ;)

The same type of page is on the MPlayer homepage.

It isn't _really_ shut down, but it does make a very valid point about software patenting.
