"The Directive will now be sent back to the European Parliament for
another vote there in the autumn as the different bodies of the EU
engage in a game of legislative ping-pong. While observers expect
vociferous lobbying from open-source and developer groups, reversing the
Council's vote will be difficult, according to James Heald of the
Foundation for a Free Information Infrastructure (FFII), a
not-for-profit organisation that promotes the rights of technology
entrepreneurs and developers. 

"The catch is that if the Parliament still doesn't like software
patents, it has to have a majority of all MEPs to put its amendments,
which means that in practice they need a two-to-one or three-to-one
majority in the chamber," said Heald. 

If the Parliament is successful in that vote, then it will go back to
the Council for a second reading, and then if the Council still
disagrees then it will go to a 'sudden death' reconciliation committee,
which will have six weeks to settle the matter."
