Okay so we all cheered the other week when the EU threw out software patents. Not many people looked at why...

It was actually pushed out against its backers. Why? So many ammendments had been made to it by the EU to protect small businesses, induviduals, open source etc that they where no longer happy with what they where left with.

If I was a betting man i'd put money down that in 3 months they will have another crack at it.

Anything to add?
