The costs in human ressources are high enough if you don't hire a lawyer.
In either case, ffii in general can't afford to battle individual patents.

How about issuing simple a complaint to EPO during the 9 months period.
Are complaints officially registered at EPO btw?

Each complaint could have a fund for legal actions against EPO and the patent owner, if the funds are submitted, lawyers will follow. Otherwise the fund is repaid or donated to FFII.

Would it work? A legal process against EPO might be a way to stop the commission. No one politician wants to be affiliated with a criminal in public.
