Fwd: Open Letter to Ministers of Agriculture on Software Patents

[Žiga Böhm]

čeprav je naša država v odprtem pismu omenjena kot država, kjer večina 
nasprotuje sprejetju programskih patentov, je dejanskih podpisnikov iz 
slovenije naravnost smešno malo - čimprej pripišite torej svoj podpis 
podpore.

Dear FFII supporter [1],

 Please help us to stop EU Agriculture Ministers from
 taking a dreadful step towards software patents.

 This Tuesday the EU Ministers of Agriculture will
 be asked to vote through the Council's software patents
 directive text as an agenda A-item, without discussion,
 even though there no longer exists a qualified majority
 of countries in favour of it. [2]

 The Council text imposes unlimited patentability,
 with several layers of defences 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 of the
 very real choice he/she has to make in the Agriculture Council
 on Tuesday.  Please place the

 Please place the

 on your most important web page(s).

 Add your support to the wiki page

 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 enough supporters participate, then the story will reach
 media and the news will spread. Your agricultural minister then can
 be more easily convinced that his/her resistance is worth
 the effort.

 With kind regards,
