Software Patents rear their ugly heads again
« on: 22 August 2003, 17:40 »
I'd like to make you aware of the software patents directive due for vote on September 1st in the European Commission. Countries like America have shown real problems with software patents, most notably when Amazon patented the "one-click shopping" technology.

Software patents do not promote technological development, and will harm the future of Free Software.


If you are able to, please consider attending the real demonstration that will take place in Brussels on the 27th August. If not, then please display a similar message on your web site, and take action with FFII.
