How other domains are excluded from patentability
Revision as of 17:41, 1 September 2013 by Ciaran (talk | contribs) (How to write a law banning software patents)
This page gathers two things. First, legal wordings so we can see how other domains get cut free from the patent system. Second, the reasoning of why legislators and courts got convinced that it's right for those domains to be excluded. This should help our work to writing a law banning software patents, and more generally to argue for abolition.
