"The issue was raised by Green Party Alderman Jens Muehlhaus, who warned that patent issues could grind some of the city's departments to a halt in the future. The issue involves a proposed directive on software patents that is being considered by various European governments, including Germany, France, and the U.K. The threat is this: a patent owner could send a cease-and-desist order against the City of Munich, said Florian Mueller, a software entrepreneur and spokesman for the Green Party there. Mueller noted that the European patent situation is a grey area that should be clarified. " [...] "Mueller said the software-patent landscape in Europe is murky, with different countries and different political parties within those countries voicing varying opinions and approaches to software patents. In 1974, the European Patent Convention--an independent body--decided that computer software and mathematical logic could not be patented, Mueller said, adding that thousands of software programs have nevertheless been patented using other approaches. " Ref: http://www.techweb.com/wire/story/TWB20040730S0001 -oOo- Har erhvervsministeren tidligere svaret på, hvad patentdirektivet evt. vil få af konsekvenser for evt. brug af OSS i offentligt regi herhjemme ? - ellers burde nogen spørge ham... - han har vel ikke svaret, at det ingen betydning vil ha' ? Ovenstående tyder i givet fald på at han har viderebragt misinformation... Med venlig hilsen, Erik Lange
