[Cooker] [Brevets-Patents] Will Mandrake do something ?

[Fabien ILLIDE]

Hi !

I think you're all aware of software patent vote at European Parlement 
this 1st september.

According to http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2564 (not only I 
hope ;-)) Mandrake is *not* for software patents.

Will Mandrake show is interest ?

I think about a website close, or advertisment on it, posts on mandrake 
forums (especialy newbies forum and chat) or other signifiant action.

These posts could for example give some informational links, and tell 
people to sign the online petition if they agree with our position.

One example of website close : http://free-eos.org/ (the website is still 
available to not disturb too much users)
Some links :
http://brevets-logiciels.info/

Petition :
http://petition.eurolinux.org/

I think all cooker contributors/readers have already sign this petition, 
in case you live in water please sign it ASAP. :o)

Thanks for your attention,
Bye,
Fabien
ps: will guys from here be at Brussels strike this wednesday 27th ?
