German Bundestag Adopting Multi-Partisan Resolution on Patentability of CII.
In accordance with the expectations yesterday the German Bundestag has adopted the multi-partisan Resolution commenting on the EU Draft Directive on the patentability of computer-implemented inventions. See Heise Newsticker [In German].
Well, at last, a united front against the Commission's all powerful bulldozer running rampage over democratic proceedings. Brave or foolhardy ? Only time will tell ;-)
I would be very surprised if such a thing were ever to happen here in France where I live, though. The politicians here couldn't fight their way out of a wet paper bag, let alone a computer implemented inventions directive.
BTW, I remember you commenting about the lack of European IP blogs, so I decided to set one up. Nothing spectacular, no frills, no fuss. It can be reached here :
