hi Carsten,
* Carsten Agger agger@modspil.dk [2014-01-16 17:00:33 +0100]:
I've been invited to a meeting next Monday, and I think I will ad the support of our local FSFE group on the "NO" side. The reasoning is, once again: We do not want any software patents, and we believe this unified patents may easily become a means for introducing software patents on the European level.
I am sorry I am late on this. How did it go?
For the follow-up it might help you to read https://fsfe.org/news/2013/news-20130612-01.en.html and the linked documents. As you can read German also http://www.bundestag.de/bundestag/ausschuesse17/a06/anhoerungen/archiv/47_Patentierung_von_Computerprogrammen/04_Stellungnahmen/Stellungnahme_Kirschner.pdf our written statement to the German Parliament.
Some other background on the German situation is available in my blog entry https://blogs.fsfe.org/mk/fsfe-meeting-the-fsf-crew-in-boston-2/ (I have no clue why the URL is so strange, I converted from the short numbers to longer links some time ago).
Best Regards, Matthias
