Journal Journal: unorganized rantings on software patents
Software Patents
I'll start off with a notice to those who would say that I am out to
undermine all the work of programmers everywhere, in hopes that I may
receive a free lunch: I am a programmer, I understand what it is to
see a project through to its completion and hope for it's continued
success. A free ride has never been my goal. Furthermore, it is
another misstatement to say that abolishing software patents would
somehow make software available at zero cost.
