Great news! The EU software patents bill was crushed by a huge margintoday:
The news item says: ... Dr John Collins, a partner at patent attorney Marks & Clerk said the decision was not a victory for opponents of software patents.
"Today's outcome is a continuation of inconsistency and uncertainty with regard to software patenting across the EU," he said.
"Software will continue to be patented in Europe as it has been for the last 30 years," said Dr Collins. ... Does this mean that software can be patented?
