"The US LZW patent expired on June 20, 2003. The counterpart patents in
the United Kingdom, France, Germany and Italy expired on June 18, 2004,
the Japanese counterpart patents expired on June 20, 2004 and the
counterpart Canadian patent expired on July 7, 2004.[16] Consequently,
while Unisys has further patents and patent applications relating to
improvements to the LZW technique,[16] the GIF format may now be used
freely"
