The EuroLinux petition
The EuroLinux petition is a petition that collected more than 435,000 signatures against software patents. It was authored in 2002(?) by "EuroLinux Alliance", an open coalition which included FFII, April, Aful, HispaLinux, AEL, and other organisations.
The motivations mentioned in the petition are the damage to competition and damage to innovation.
