Following the vote in favour of software patents on Tuesday in the
Council of Ministers, it is now especially important to make MEP
candidates aware of how significant this is.
It's a 300 seater lecture theatre, and this has had to be organised at
the last minute, so please help us publicise it and get the word out.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Richard Stallman will be giving a one hour talk tomorrow (Friday) on
software patents in London at UCL.
Following the talk, a panel of representatives from the political
parties will comment, and lay out their party positions.*
