Any day, much better than your rabid non-stop nonsense.
Software patents - fine
But the rest of your pointless rants about the WTO are shared by,
perhaps,
those "farmer associations" that go around throwing rocks through
McDonalds
windows.
Justice Ayyangar Committee suggested several important reforms that led
to the bare minimum patent law possible in 1970, liberating the local
industries. Now, WTO forces changes that will take us back to pre 1970
days. Justice Krishna Iyer has written umpteen articles against this
"Gattastrophe". The Seeds Ordinance that came along with the Patents
Ordinance, largely went unnoticed. Looks like they are testing the
waters for terminator seeds. We have FSF and others to campaign against
"software patents" but what about poor things like seeds? Not many so
far. To be on the safer side, Linux programmers may better learn about
hunting GNUs or picking APPLEs from trees, which may help in future at
lunch time ;)
