Hi,
This article
http://comment.zdnet.co.uk/other/0,39020682,39205463,00.htm
is a very interesting analysis of the BSA's study regarding software
patents in Europe. Very interesting.
In short, the mathematics used has some serious holes in it, a significant
number of the companies studied are not SMEs as suggested by the study, it
contains uncorrected factual errors, and more.
