[Esp-action-alert] Software Patent News Overview #000 (announcing news.swpat.org)

[Ciaran O'Riordan]

Dear supporters,

I hope you've all seen ESP's new news site: http://news.swpat.org

This mailing list will continue to be used for occasional big stories and
occasional urgent items, while news.swpat.org will carry a much higher
volume of news.

Readers of the news site can add comments to articles.  This is very helpful
for sharing knowledge and it provides a source of info for the wiki, so we
will link the mailing list to the news site by regularly posting the list of
recent news.swpat.org articles.  How regularly?  Once per week, provided
there's been enough news.

So here's the first list of what's been published recently:

Education and software patents

Bilski is obviously the big news, but the Israel issue is important too.  If
you know anyone in Israel who might be interested in helping, please ask
them to get in touch with me and ask them to add what they know to the wiki:
