Discussion Rounds

After having bent the law so as to be able to grant patents on information and life, the European Patent Office and the EU commission want to change the law itself so as to legalise their practise. They have never seriously investigated how this may affect the development of information technology.

 

If you want to keep the infosphere free of patents or would like to discuss about this subject, you can subscribe to our (German-speaking) mailing list, which is also archived.

Moreover, there is an English and French speaking mailing list about this subject as well as a very active mailing list of the Italian Initiative against Software Patents.
