It's still unclear to me what's the difference between coding
something after reading a protocol's documentation vs. coding
something after reverse-engineering the same protocol. The resulting
code is exactly the same, all origined by the developer. As patents
don't care where you've your ideas from, the patent relevance of such
code is the same as well.
Could somebody kindly please sketch up a scenario which shows what to
avoid?
Thanks,
Markus
