Our goals

Revision as of 14:24, 15 March 2010 by 95.225.87.50 (talk) (The role of en.swpat.org)

en.swpat.org is a wiki, editable by anyone, which aims to build an information resource for campaigns against software patents around the world.

How do we "end software patents"?

What we can do right now in a given region depends on current events there, but in the long term we have to work toward four goals:

  1. Legislation that clearly excludes software ideas from patentability
  2. Patent office conduct that consistently rejects applications for patents on software ideas
  3. Court rulings which confirm that patents on software ideas are not valid
  4. Understanding among politicians that software patents are a bad idea

Side issues

There are also minor intermediary goals and other minor ways to also fight software patents, but the list of points above are the real goals of anyone who is against software patents.
