Hello

I had an idea about a patent license some time ago, but I didn't have the time to express it in a meaningful way.

I'll make an attempt here.
My idea starts with the question: is it possible to "copyleft" a patent?
(I know copyleft is derived from copyright != patent system) But still, I view copyleft as a philosophy so ...

Can someone license the use of a patent to others as long they don't try to enforce their own patents ?
