The scope of patents sometimes extends much beyond the realm of the individual contributor, even if they are involved in their day-job on technology development and contribution that is under FOSS.
How do you propose to audit applications for such stuff ?
This is speakers responsibility. not to show any such technology which has
patent retrictions. For example, Facebook do have patent on newsfeed but anyone can come and show their code of facebook addons etc. But If somebody make a addon and try to get patent over it. they fossdevconf is not a right place. Yup I agree process is difficult.
