I don't remember that anyone was actually sued for using the LZW compression algorithm (certainly not a company rather close to Debian). Maybe the case was so clear that every paid royalties.

Removing JPEG support would at least help to get the software patent message across. -- Current mail filters: many dial-up/DSL/cable modem hosts, and the following domains: atlas.cz, bigpond.com, di-ve.com, netscape.net, postino.it, tiscali.co.uk, tiscali.cz, tiscali.it, voila.fr.
