Preaching to the choir, though I think simply removing software from the list of things that's patentable would be an easier battle than trying to overhaul the entire system. Costs of, e.g., pharmaceutical development make patents necessary for a reasonable ROI -- and big pharma has a lot of money, so you don't want to be up against their lobbyists. :) Tim -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Discuss" group.
