una manica d'idioti (patentati) - 1
occhi aperti!
Brussels, June 20th, 2005 -- The Legal Affairs Committee today voted on amendments to the Rocard report on the software patents directive and approved a number of amendments. A few of these have a little symbolic value, such as definition of "technology" as "applied natural science" and, in some instances, renaming of "computer-implemented invention" to "computer-aided invention". However, the result overall leaves the key loopholes of the Council's text wide open, and in some cases even widened further. The directive will now be voted on by the full Parliament, in two weeks' time.
