At
http://swpat.ffii.org/players/icc
you find a rough overview of software patent decisionmaking at the
"International Chamber of Commerce -- the World Business Organisation",
one of the organisations which, together with Graham Taylor of OFEu, claim
to represent "the industry".
I dare say the representativity of ICC on these matters is not much more
credible than that of OFEu, although they probably have more members and
more money.
