[Gllug] Eolas patent (was: Re: Patents article in the Guardian (an open letter))

[Richard Jones]

Good quote about the Eolas software patent today ...

http://news.com.com/2100-1032_3-5074799.html

"When you think about this, having to go around the patent highlights
the stupidity of the patent system," he said. "Everyone in the field
is very saddened by the whole thing, that we have to go through this
exercise. The W3C has worked very hard to make the Web remain patent
free and this might be the one thing that screws it all up. It's
really very frustrating."

Rich.
