	Thanks for pointing this. I guess that's why freepatents.org
exists ;-) My idea was to create a domain name that is not bound to
Free Software and arrange it to display/mirror the petition.eurolinux.org
content. 

	Now I realize I'm new in this and there was probably a lot of
discussions on this subject. From what I heard there was apparently a
consensus on the fact that having a domain name that is not bound to
Free Software would be beneficial. I'm just proposing to create this
domain name and do whatever is necessary to display/mirror the
petition.eurolinux.org data. I'll be content to use whatever domain name
was decided.

	Anyway, buying domain names is cheap and many can point to the
same location. What will truly require work is to display the
petition.eurolinux.org data on it.

	Cheers,
