SLUGgers, if you think software idea patents are a bad thing, you can
do a little something to help, at least in Europe.
There is a poll to find the "European of the Year" which is open to
anyone, no matter where they live. Some of the candidates have worked
to keep software idea patents out of Europe. If right-minded people
win, it will help raise the "No Software Patents" profile. To this
end, nosoftwarepatents.com have set up a page suggesting how you might
vote:

You might like to spread the word to other groups too!
All the best
