Rumours say that report of the Committee on Legal Affairs and the Internal Market of the European Parliament has been withdrawn.

There are unconfirmed rumours that, in view of the pressure exerted by Eurolinux and other parts of the public, the report of the Committee on Legal Affairs and the Internal Market of the European Parliament on the proposal for a directive of the European Parliament and of the Council on the patentability of computer-implemented inventions has been formally withdrawn. The views taken by the Members of the European Parliament seem to be extremely divergent so that even the final ballot which was scheduled to take place on September 01, 2003 is said to be postponed indefinitely, maybe up to October 2003 or so.

The game seems indeed to be open again.
