Thanks to Mike Weiner for sending this pointer:It's close but not quite there. They encourage people to patent the core of their new technology, and register non-patent-worthy ideas so that competitors can't route around.
If I were to participate in such a system, it would not give comfort to patent opportunists. To participate you'd have to completely swear-off patents.
