The
Eurolinux Position on the Community Patent

mentions Lojban as one possible intermediate language useful for
providing reliable machine translated versions while at the same time
disambiguating patent language.
As a whole, the position is about creating a decentral and balanced
system and avoiding uncontrollable transnational bureaucracies.
I wonder if the Logical Language Group would like to support the whole
position paper by being mentioned among the signatories, see list.
In any case you may wish to help spread the word to Euro MPs. A group
of them seems ready to support the whole position.
Publication is imminent, because the subject is hot these days.
The LLG membership has passed a resolution supporting your efforts in
this. I'm not sure we have any position on the political matter of which
bureaucracy will manage it. I am asking the Board whether they feel we can
sign the document. (Board members get back to me ASAP please).
