| Since David Axmark and I started to work on MySQL we also took a strong stand
| against software patents. MySQL AB have been sponsoring several efforts to
| prevent software patents in Europa.
|
| Now David and I are continuing to do this outside of MySQL AB.

| If you are a philanthropist and if you care about open source software and
| don't have a love for the current patent system, I encourage you to join us
| in sponsoring Patent Lens. You can also try to get your company to sponsor.

Death to Software Patents! Nah…..
,----[ Quote ]
| What with all the paranoia surrounding In re Bilski (on patentable subject
| matter) and In re Nujiten (on signal claims) and the demands of certain
| groups for an end to software patents (see http://endsoftpatents.org), one
| might think we were on the verge of software patent mortality.
|
| [...]
|
| Rather than try to solve these issues en masse, we settled for a good
| conversation with a friend from across the Atlantic, Paul Cole, a chartered
| patent agent, patent litigator, and law professor from the UK who has written
| and spoken widely on issues of software patents.
