#WipoT: Presense at WIPO sessions

#WipoD: The World Intellectual Property Organisation (WIPO) organises sessions
of national experts on patent law and other laws where new treaties
are negotiated.  These include a broadcasting rights treaty and the
Substantive Patent Law Treaty (SPLT).  WIPO representatives have left
little doubt that they see themselves as a world legislator (rather
than as a standardisation body) and as promoters of worldwide
patentability of software and business methods and of extensive patent
practises in general.  SPLT aims at making such practises binding for
the world.  FFII will use the opportunity of some WIPO meetings to
spread critical viewpoints.

#Plen0309T: Base de données des amendements

#Plen0309D: La proposition de directive sur les brevets logiciels est devenue
sujette à des centaines de propositions d'amendements au Parlement,
disponibles dans toutes les langues de l'UE, et de futures
propositions sont en discussion au Conseil.  De plus, il y a des
contre-propositions de la part d'ONG. Nous en avons fourni des
listings sous forme de tableaux, mais pour donner une vision de cette
grande complexité et produire une bonne documentation nous avons
besoin d'une base de données relationnelle bien conçue en combinaison
avec le système de gestion des traductions MLHT.

determined by patent officials who are loyal to the patent movement
but not to the government.  Unlike most members of the European
Parliament, these officials do not need to be reelected.  Yet there
are ways of putting them in the limelight and influencing them.  
Christian Cornelssen and others are doing this work and collecting
instructions to help you do it.

%(q:gewerblich) in German, that forces of nature are
%(q:kontrollierbar) rather than %(q:beherrschbar) etc.  Some of these
wording decisions need to be rectified.  Also, the secretariat's
understanding of matters can have an influence on the voting
procedure.  We try to keep track of these issues and communicate with
the people in charge.

#Wfi: FFII UK: IPR Enforcement Directive

#npc: Originally intended as a measure to stamp down hard on organised
criminal counterfeiting and piracy, the scope of the legislation has
been widened to apply to all species of intellectual property cases. 
FFII UK documents the case, especially from the perspective of the UK,
where similar legislation has been developped through caselaw during
the last 20 years and yet misgivings about the new EU law are widely
shared by citizens as well as big and small businesses.

#Soa: Spanish Senate Unanimously Against Software Patents

#ook: Today the Spanish Senate has unanimously approved a motion which was
initiated by Jordi Guillot, senator and president of the Commission of
the Society of the Information and Conocimiento of the Senate, which
asks the Government to remain firm in his refusal to the patents of
software and it should work with other member states to obtain an
majority against the 18 May text.

#rne: Letter to MEPs on Pending Decisions

#moW: This letter was distributed by FFII to all members of the European
Parliament after Nokia, Ericsson and others had distributed theirs. 
It encourages MEPs to insist on their right to vote on a return to 1st
reading and argues that the software patents directive is one of the
cases where the exercise of this right makes sense.

#Wte: US Gov't Promoting Patent Extremism in the European Parliament

#vWl: According to the European Commission (CEC)'s Directive Proposal
COM(2002)92 for %(q:Patentability of Computer-Implemented Inventions)
and the revised version approved by the European Parliament's
Committee for Legal Affairs and the Internal Market (JURI), algorithms
and business methods such as %(as:Amazon One Click Shopping) are
without doubt patentable subject matter. This is because %(ol|Any
%(q:computer-implemented) innovation is in principle considered to be
a patentable %(q:invention).|The additional requirement of
%(q:technical contribution in the inventive step) does not mean what
most people think it means.|The directive proposal explicitly aims to
codify the practise of the %(tp|European Patent Office|EPO).  The EPO
has already granted thousands of patents on algorithms and business
methods similar to Amazon One Click Shopping.|CEC and JURI have built
in further loopholes so that, even if some provisions are amended by
the European Parliament, unlimited patentability remains assured.)

#ltu: 情報請求項： 有用な特許明書の発表禁止

#pms: Patent Claims to %(q:computer program, characterised by that upon
loading it into memory [ some process ] is executed), are called
%(q:program claims), %(q:Beauregard claims), %(q:In-re-Lowry-Claims),
%(q:program product claims), %(q:text claims) or %(q:information
claims).  Patents which contain these claims are sometimes called
%(q:text patents) or %(q:information patents).  Such patents no longer
monopolise a physical object but a description of such an object. 
Whether this should be allowed is one of the controversial questions
in the struggle about the proposed EU Software Patent Directive.  We
try to explain how this debate emerged and what is really at stake.
