This June I proposed here a petition draft for bringing the idea of a
Logical Language into the European Patent system.  Currently intense
lobbying is going on, because the EU is "harmonizing" its patent system
and, under this guise, planning to enlarge its scope to include software.

The petition draft got support from some Lojbanists at the time, but still
I am not sure whose name I can put under it.  See yourself at
