I think different standards apply because there's a rather significant difference in the urgency between a dispute about an intruder in one's living quarters and a patent or intellectual property lawsuit. It looks like RunwayFinder is not even trying to dispute the case and is giving up pre-emptively because they don't have the funds to fight the case.
Accepting a temporary license to postpone the lawsuit does not sound smart to me, it sounds like a ploy to allow RunwayFinder to stay online longer while FlightPrep continues to pursue licensing agreements (which the owner has no ability to pay) or legal allegations that will result in additional damages as well as an admission of the validity of the patent. But I guess now we'll just have to wait for someone who knows what they're talking about to correct one or both of us. :)
