<CGI265> hi all

<CGI265> how's going the demonstration in bruxelles?

<CGI265> i'm from italy and here we're trying to demonstrate especially convincing people closing his websites for protest

<CGI265> I need to know a thing

<CGI265> when does the european council will discuss the modification of the laws about software patents???

<ehj> as far as I know they talk right now

<ehj> and will put their proposal to vote in may (coreper)

<CGI265> let's hope the demonstration will bring his goods

<ehj> all pressure should be put at national ministers right now

<ehj> and this bxl-demo

<ehj> will serve as a boost for national

<ehj> discussions

<ehj> have you read this http://swpat.ffii.org/news/04/cons0408/index.en.html

<ehj> ?

<CGI265> you're right, my national minister is so convinced about software patents and when BIll Gates came in Italy, he was receives with all the honours

<CGI265> and my prime minister is a entreneur himself

<ehj> CGI265, no itaian version of the text yet?

<CGI265> I'm reading the document

<ehj> -> italian

<ehj> In Sweden, the ministry of justice uses another "tactic"

<ehj> they say this directive is nothing new

<ehj> and patents on "computer implemented inventions" has allways been granted. 

<CGI265> I'm worried that maybe the most people in europe, interested in it, are contrary to this new directive; but the national minister are proud of it

<ehj> yes... it's a big problem of "closed door"-democracy

<CGI265> I agree

<ehj> do you know many national demonstrations are beeing prepaired?

<CGI265> NO

<ehj> we try to set up discussions before the election

<CGI265> in italy we've not prepared anything

<ehj> where I live (sweden) we try :-)

<ehj> but my LUG is quite big.

<CGI265> it would be wonderful if all the nation involved do national demonstration THE SAME DAY

<CGI265> mine is very poor

<ehj> http://www.sslug.dk/

<ehj> "the same day"-demonstrations are prepaired in lissbon, and london and berlin I think

<ehj> I am not sure

<ehj> I think Hartmut in FFII has set up templates:

<ehj> for all countries

<ehj> do you know Simo Sorce?

<ehj> he is italian/finnish

<ehj> and knows a lot about this

<ehj> yes... Berlin the 12 may: http://kwiki.ffii.org/DemoBerlin0405De

<ehj> Lissabn http://kwiki.ffii.org/?DemoLisboa0405Pt

<CGI265> can you see my messages?

<CGI265> ok now I can see them, i had problem

<CGI265> do you know where Simo Sorce lives?

<ehj> I think he is in Rome

<CGI265> good, maybe we can contact him to prepare something!

<CGI265> sorry, but have you ever wrote any HOWTOs, I've already seen your nick?

<ehj> ah.... here is a Rome template: (it's a wiki)

<ehj> http://kwiki.ffii.org/DemoRoma0405En

<ehj> no, never wrote HOWTOs

<ehj> my name is Erik Josefsson

<ehj> and my middle name is Hjalmar

<ehj> that makes e h j :-)

<CGI265> no, ok, because I think I've translated an howto, written by somebody called ehj, so.....

<CGI265> Ok, thanks for our chat, now I'm telling what you've told me to the group of free-software supporters in italy

<CGI265> maybe to prepare the Demonstration in Rome and edit the page you've just told me

<ehj> I will find simos address for you

<ehj> wait...
