Hallo Ramon, One point I noticed from your article is that the EPO is allowing the patenting of business methods, which is contrary to what was stated by Dr. Ghio in hist article " Software patents for business methods and not relating to any technical contribution will still not be accepted."
Since they are accepted, one wonders how accurate the other assertions in his article are. Maybe this should be highlighted. - Graham Petley --- [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > Date: Sun, 26 Jun 2005 11:18:21 +0200 > From: Ramon Casha <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: [LINUX.ORG.MT] Software Patents ? the threat to IT > To: [email protected] > Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" > > I have written an article which could be published in response to > The Times' > technology article of 16th June.
