Dear supporters,
The swpat.org wiki is growing, but there's not much information about Latin
America so I've chosen Brazil and Argentina for the first in a series of
spotlights. What sort of information should be added to the wiki?
* Info about who's pressuring LA to have swpats - free trade? world trade?
* Problems caused by swpats
* Explanations of existing laws
* Proposals to change the law
* Court cases
* Studies and reports about the cost of swpats
* Contact details for groups that are active against swpats
* Info about whether patent offices are granting swpats
Here are the pages I've started so far, but they're all very short:
http://en.swpat.org/wiki/Argentina
http://en.swpat.org/wiki/Legislation_in_Argentina
http://en.swpat.org/wiki/Discuss_this_wiki_in_Spanish
http://en.swpat.org/wiki/Brazil
http://en.swpat.org/wiki/Legislation_in_Brazil
http://en.swpat.org/wiki/Discuss_this_wiki_in_Portuguese
http://en.swpat.org/wiki/Legislation_in_Chile
http://en.swpat.org/wiki/Legislation_in_Cuba
http://en.swpat.org/wiki/Legislation_in_Uruguay
http://en.swpat.org/wiki/Patent_office_practice_in_Venezuela
You can help by contributing to these pages. You can also help by sending
me information - preferably in English, but I can read some Spanish and a
little Portuguese.
The wiki content is in English, but there are pages for discussion in other
languages:

http://en.swpat.org/wiki/Discuss_this_wiki_in_Portuguese
Next week the spotlight will be on New Zealand, where a there is a
legislative proposal to modify the patent law:
