This does _not_ help. It only affects the amount of damages in US legal 
hemisphere. 

My advise would be to contact the apple developers to help contacting 
the apple legal department and get a license for khtml. I think this is 
the best way to react. There are lots of people that benefit from open 
source code and development. So there could be a counterpart. This 
could be a license to use the stuff in KDE. 

It is always the best way in IPR issues to ask the rightsholder first 
and shoot afterwards (by revert, publicity etc)

Best, 

Rigo
