http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/7259339.stm Just making sure this is on FSFE's radar - a Europe-wide standard presents great opportunities and great risks for free software. If we can make sure that the standard allows free software implementations, without patent encumberment, then this will massively lower another barrier to entry for free software and free culture; if we fail, it may make free software unusable for large numbers of home users. What can be done in this fight?
