Of thomas - July 7, 2005 19:26:00 After almost two years ago had rejected the EU parliament already prepared by the EU Council Directive on the Introduction of software patents, it became synonymous 2nd yesterday in a so-called Reading declined. The uniform legislation, it, like in the U.S. should be synonymous in the EU in principle possible, software (applications) not only protected by copyright, but patent-synonymous.
