Lame patent

It seems that IBM has patented the MVC approach as it applies to Java Servlets and JSPs...How silly.
This is especially silly, considering that the patent was filed June 17, 2003, and we all know how long before that Struts was released... From what I could decipher from that patent's legalese seems to me like Struts can serve as perfect prior-art for this patent.
Mark another one for abuse of the U.S. patent system.
