I have been invited to a day-long seminar on intellectual property in Munich in late April by the European Patent Office. This is probably on the back of an article of mine in the Guardian last autumn denouncing software patents. Obviously, I would like to say something more than whatever was in that article: my own view is that software patents are bad but we do need an intellectual proerty regiome which will encourage people to make money from software, without strangling those who would like it to be free.
This is vague. If peope have more precise ideas, they cold write to me, or discuss it here, if it's not too far off-topic. -- Andrew Brown What I do: www.darwinwars.com What I'm up to: www.thewormbook.com/helmintholog --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
