The EU Commission's Digital Agenda Plan
,----[ Quote ]
| I noticed that ECIS statement did not say
| anything about software patents. However,
| it did say that it's goal is to allow all
| people to access without being charged by
| proprietary vendors. I wonder, when the
| EU finally allows software patents that
| there will be a provision that
| specifically prevents patents from being
| used as a weapon in the monopoly wars as
| far as public interoperability (whatever
| that means) goes.
