Re: Munich convention 2005-10-05 says no programs can be patented : why no go to court with european office for patents ?

Guy-Marc,

do you have any idea whom you are replying to, whom you are accusing
of being "afraid", and the amount of excellent work he has been
putting up to deal with this patent issue.

If you think something useful has been forgotten, just do it.  As you
say, it will "take only a few hours", and since you came up with the
idea, you are obviously the best person to do it "properly".
