Groklaw is a website run by Pamela Jones, a paralegal in the USA. It provides news, comments and archive material on important cases relevant to software law, especially with respect to copyrights and patents. PJ, and hence Groklaw, is a keen advocate of free software and is opposed to software patents.

Articles on ESP Wiki which reference material to be found on Groklaw include:

The case for software patents

Pamela Jones invited the law firm of Wolf, Greenfield & Sacks to write an article for Groklaw, defending business methods and software patents. They came up with The Arguments For Patents for Business Methods and Software-Implemented Inventions. Groklaw naturally disagrees with their position. The End Software Patents campaign mirrored this action, getting an article on the Patently-o blog: Abandoning software patents?.
