Dear Mr. Stallman: Is someone from the FSF(or FSFEurope)fighting on the issue of the EPLA European Patent Litigation Agreement. Please, publicise it in order to alert anyone who could be interested in/affected by this issue. How about a campaign the like of "DRM defective by design.org" or the "Patent Busting" campaign not long ago of the EFF?? Maybe a joint effort of EFF+FSF is worthwhile on this issue, and could spearhead a general movement against software patents worldwide and further atempts on the side of pro-patent lobbyies in the EU to avoid democratic control. We have a very good opportunity to stop the proliferation of Software Patentes worldwide and stop its worldwide adoption as "established unavoidable unchangeable thruth"! The technological independence against big technology corporations of member countries of the European Union and the advancement -maybe survilval- of Free Software is at stake as well!!!
