Draft European Interoperability Framework v 2.0: Your comments needed

,----[ Quote ]
| In my opinion, it is very important that Europeans who are interested in open 
| standards and interoperability look at, comment, and, if appropriate, express 
| their support for this draft or portions thereof.  
| 
| Through the grapevine I have heard that the usual suspects who oppose open 
| standards and support the “buy all your products from a single vendor and use 
| the specifications they dictate” philosophy of interoperability plan to come 
| out against portions of this draft.   
| 
| Do not let their voices drown out yours if this is important to you. You have 
| a little bit more than two months in which to comment. Encourage others to do 
| so as well.

| School and the USPTO, has been extended after the first year's trial. It's 
| also been expanded to include business methods patents! Yum. I can't wait to 
| see you try to invalidate some of those.

New Patent Applications Up For Public Review on Peer to Patent - One From MS

| A system for selling media clips in an offline economy. Catchy. Well, 
| Microsoft always did grok the Internet. Snark. 
| 
| At last! The iTunes killer. I surely hope you guys can deep six this one with 
| prior art. Although, I must admit I find it appealing to think of a world 
| where Microsoft and Hollywood hopped off the Internet and played in their own 
| separate offline playground.
