I'm not sure how much this lawsuit is based on a particular way of doing something - perhaps some code issues - or just a METHOD.
Like Amazon's one-click patent - these type of patents are a travesty. It's like patenting a walking path, getting from A to B. As long as the code is not reused - (a lot of learning technology is based upon open specifications - look at IMS - so this type of patent is incredibly damaging to competition, in what is essentially a smaller enterprise market.
Now - how does this effect Integral? Well, for one, there has been something launched at Integral Institute, called the Integral University. While of course low on the totem pole - the broadness of the patents could conceivably put ANY online learning system in the crosshairs.

Here is the post from Ken Wilber's site.
I feel bad for Ken, but also, quite a bizarre type of accident - usually when there is that type of swelling, there is significant physical trauma. I'm surprised Ken hasn't been checked out by a physician yet. (Lastly - even in this state, Ken still has a sixpack - how does he manage that?)
