Stvar dobiva že škandalozne raszežnosti.

Zato, da bi patentno direktivo spravili čez še pred novim letom, bodo o
njej v torek glasovali ministri za KMETIJSTVO.

 The EU Ministers of Agriculture on the coming
 Tuesday will be asked to nod off the Council's 
 software patents directive text as an A-item, 
 without discussion and without a qualified
 majority.[2]

 The Council text imposes unlimited patentability, 
 with several layers of safeguard against any 
 attempt at limitation. If this text text is adopted, 
 it will be difficult to achieve a reasonable directive 
 at a later stage of the co-decision procedure.

 Please help to make your Minister of Agriculture aware which 
 decision he/she has to take in the Agriculture Council 
 on Tuesday. 

 Please place the 
 
 	Open Letter 
 	http://demo.ffii.org/letter.html
 
 or the
 
 	Banner
 	http://demo.ffii.org/banner.html
  
 on your most important web page(s).
 
 Add your support to the wiki page 

    http://kwiki.ffii.org/support.php

 This also points to pages where you may share the contact 
 addresses of your ministry and letters already faxed to 
 ministers of agriculture and environment.
 
 If many supporters participate, then the news will reach
 media and multipliers. Your agricultural minister then can 
 be more easily convinced that his/her resistance is worth 
 the effort.
  
 With kind regards,

 -- 
 Gérald Sédrati-Dinet, Felix Klee, Holger Blasum, 
 Peter Gerwinski, Hartmut Pilch
