More details on the mentioned software patent here:

20060047947 End-to-end reliable messaging with complete acknowledgement

                                Abstract

Reliable end-to-end messaging in which tracking and acknowledgement
information are contained in the electronic message that is visible to
layers above the transport layer, thereby being independent of what
transport protocols, and whether different transport protocols, are used
to communicate between the two end points. Furthermore, acknowledgment
messages may identify multiple ranges of sequence numbers corresponding
to received electronic messages, thereby permitting further flexibility
and completeness in acknowledging received messages.

Guess this is political but a link to the "Foundation for a Free
Information Infrastructure" (FFII) http://www.ffii.org/ which has a
stand against software patents.
