EU Amends Software Patent Directive (Suggestions)

Posted by Hemos on Sunday September 21, 2003 @11:59PM from the still-in-draft-form dept.

jopet writes "The EU has amended its draft proposal for a directive on how to handle patents on "computer-implemented inventions'. Several harsh points have been dropped and clarifications on what is patentable at all have been added. Good to see that protests and petitions can make a difference." YHBT. These are the suggestions from June.

Slashdot doing any discussion on EU patents is total crap every single time. It is a common slashdot theme, most likely related to their US centric ways.
