Prior Art

FFII has already started to document the state of the art for all FFII.ORG projects. This documentation is archived in a public library with a time stamp once a month.

 

FTP Archive

Of all projects hosted by FFII.ORG, every day progress deltas are recorded on our public FTP archive. External projects can participate by naming us their URLs, which are then mirrored and integrated.

Once a month a CD is burned and deposited at a local library.

Place hints for searchers!

Your data may give you the possibility of beating a nasty patent in court one day by proving that you were there first. Not only you but also the rest of us will benefit.

So please make sure your data will be as useful as possible by documenting your inventive steps a little bit by placing a file called PRIORART into the root directory, which will contain a few hints and links to other interesting files, like a CHANGELOG or a mailing list archive.
