Have any of you caught wind of this? Its been getting some play the last few days in the media

The current theory is that the Linux Foundation is trying to prevent the election of members that would vote for GPL enforcement. I understand that this theory puts forth the idea that Microsoft and VMWare now are pulling their weight in the LF after a law suit was filed in Germany regarding enforcement.
I am not sure how true any of this is (except the part about the vote... i have been a linux foundation member for years so I can confirm at least the voting part)
What do you guys think?
