A single EU patent looks dead in the water as member states seek alternatives

,----[ Quote ]
| Attempts to create a single EU patent could 
| be heading to yet another failure, according 
| to Margot FrÃhlinger, Director of Knowledge 
| Economy inside the Internal Markets DG of the 
| European Commission. Speaking today at the IP 
| Business Congress in Munich, FrÃhlinger, who 
| is closely involved in the negotiations 
| surrounding the patent, as well as a single 
| litigation system in the EU, told delegates 
| that the project "is not in the best shape". 
| Proposals about languages and translations 
| are due to be presented to the Council of 
| Ministers next week. There is, however, 
| "little chance that they will fly," she said.
