Hi! I'm breaking my rule of lurking on this list (and spending my time trying to be active against swpats as opposed to talking about it) to tell you that the JURI (EP committee on legal affairs who have tended to be more pro-EPO) have voted to invoke Rule 55 of the Rules of Parliament for a total restart of the software patents directive process (going back through the parliament with a new directive).
