Call for protest: Against software patents -2-
==============================================

:Description:
    I recently updated my anti software patents demo page (see here) in
    respect to the newest incidents.

I recently updated my anti software patents demo page (see `here`__) in
respect to the newest incidents.

.. __: /index.html

    Brussels, wednesday 19th Jan 2005 -- The EU Software Patent Directive has
    been or will be scheduled on the agenda of the Agriculture and Fishery
    Meeting of the 24th of January as an A item, i.e. an item that is to be
    adopted without a vote. This was announced today by officials of the
    European Commission and of the EU Council Presidency at various meetings.
    The entry is not on the official meeting calendar yet.

This text is now used in the demo page (instead of the appeal I used `last
time`__). Thanks for putting a page like that in front of your entry page to
protest against software patents. You can download the actualized version
`here`__.
