I thought it might be worth replying to point out that the wishes of the elected representatives are being thrown aside and if they wish to prevent s/w patents they will need to vote against them when the proposals come before the European Parliament again later this year.
As far as I was aware that was the intention, was it not? (See my initial post of Sunday).:
Just send this: <What is the XXXXX party's policy on Software patents within europe?> to the Conservatives, Labour, Liberal Democrats, BNP, Greens, English Democrats and the Indepedents. It serves to make them think, and raises the matter as an issue in this election. You can then follow it up with whatever Mark has later
