Hello,
I thought Preston Linux users might be interested in knowing about a
approaching vote to take place in the European Parliament, concerning
software patents. Software patents (which are not allowed at the moment in
the EU) could have an impact on the legal position of producers of free
software:

And our friendly, neighbourhood MEP for Liverpool & Manchester, Arlene
McCarthy:
