I personally am not going around encouraging people to take a stance
upon an issue whilst simultaneously helping out the very people
against whom one is supposed to be standing. I applaud Gentoo's
efforts in displaying the banners, but so long as Gentoo continues to
assist and advertise for the very companies who are pushing for
software patents, I do not see it as a particularly credible protest.
Would it not be better to avoid becoming involved in the issue
entirely if one is not prepared to back up a cute little banner with
actual actions?
