Hi,

I just recently created a web page that tries to keep track of patent
issues and general topics that impact on our freedrom.  The general
thesis is a bit provocative:

  We are living in a time where information abounds and the
  possibility for innovoation are endless. However, we are also living
  in a time where information and innovation are considered dangerous
  by the powers who be.

For more information see

Comments and suggestion are welcome.  I would also be interested to
hear about any feedback on the impact of the demonstrations against
software patents in Europe.

Niels.
