No, the patent lobby has always wanted to change both.

The ICC IP Committee last year again called on politicians to change the
EPC, and McCarthy's latest "compromise amendment" also calls for changing
it.

Most politicians in governmental positions have alawys thought that they
must say a few nice words about "opensource" but, apart from that, obey
the traditional owners of patent policy.
