EU Council agitates for unlimited software patentsEU Council agitates for unlimited software patentsPosted Feb 25, 2004 10:58 UTC (Wed) by armijn (subscriber, #3653)Parent article: EU Council agitates for unlimited software patents Does anybody know if for example code that is written before these patents will be valid will also be affected? Otherwise now would be the time to churn out massive amounts of (quality) code (and it might also come in handy as `prior art').

EU Council agitates for unlimited software patents Posted Feb 25, 2004 11:39 UTC (Wed) by man_ls (subscriber, #15091) [Link] It is, IMHO, a futile attempt. The problem with these patents is that you have to litigate to prove anything, one way or the other; and, as seen in the US, the outcome is not always predictable on a rational basis.As the old gipsy curse goes, "May you get into lawsuits, and win them".
