Much of this text, pasted from various different rationale documents, deals
with issues that either changed in later drafts, or is focused on various
minutia about the Microsoft/Novell deal that seems in retrospect rather
unimportant for many reasons.
Hopefully what I've cut down to is the bare essentials of what's needed to
explain the patent section of GPLv3 to a newbie. I suspect that I'll want
later to go over this and add more material or reword things further.
I've added a few FIXME-LATER's for that reason.

Relevant text from FSF's "GPLv3 Final Rationale" as released on 2007-06-29.

I (Bradley M. Kuhn) went through FSF's "GPLv3 Final Rationale", and pasted in
any sections that seemed useful to this tutorial. There is a lot of
interesting material in that particular rationale document, although much of
it is probably too verbose for inclusion. I expect much of this will need to
be cut out.
The raw material used for this commit can be found here:
http://www.gnu.org/licences/gpl3-final-rationale.pdf
As I pasted in this text, I added FIXME's sometimes where it seemed the text
might need work. However, I was much more extensive in just pasting here, so
there's a big editing job now. As mentioned in a previous commit, the whole
GPLv3 chapter is now completely disjoint with all this pasting.
