Microsoft has/had patents on the FAT implementations too and those
covered the 8.3 naming scheme. I'm not positive, but I think I
remember seeing that they have let the FAT12 and FAT16 patents lapse.

I think in the US it is now 20 years, although it used to be longer. The 20
years might just apply to patents granted since the time limit was changed.


.....but then I could be completely wrong.
