On our news page

        http://swpat.ffii.org/cnino/

you find a few new items

 - Laeken Summit reaffirms belief in crucial importance of
   community patent for progress and wealth in Europe
 - Law professor suggests >30000 illegal swpat be declared illegal
   so as to achieve new EU deregulation targets
 - new swpat news page at Europe-Shareware.org

Moreover new things are also found at

        Jurisprudence de Brevet sur Terrain Glissant --
        FFII introduction to the legal issues of swpat
        and bibliography, now also in French, thanks to Odile
        http://swpat.ffii.org/stidi/korcu/

        Illustrative material, pamphlets, posters etc
        some new stuff from FFII and Europe-Shareware
        http://www.ffii.org/proj/kunst/swpat/

Given that tomorrow european politicians are gathering again in a hectic
attempt to push ahead the Community Patent project, it would be very
helpful if every reader could do something in order to make the

        Eurolinux Position on the Community Patent
        http://www.eurolinux.org/news/cpat01B/

better heard.
