Story: FFII slams EC taskforce over software patents
"Patents are a currency". (Courtois - MS)
While not being clear of the point being made in PH's last paragraph, Patents and Patent Experts are likely too costly for many SME's whose budget and focus is not quite the same as Big Businesses. Therefore the propsals from this study by a self interested group do not represent or safeguard the intersests of SME's at all.
"We try as a company to evolve the licensing of patents between large and small companies, providing skills which are being used more and more." Quote from M$'s Courtois.
