European patent protesters: 'Innovation--yes!'

Never said I run a small European company..: I am talking metaphorically. But I don't need to show the code: All someone need do is "Why didn't I thing of that feature" and add that feature to their software.
If they coded it the same way I did (chances are they did), then they can't use it and must come up with another way of doing it, thereby giving me a chance to form a client base.
If it takes them a year to do it, I'm a year better off than I was before.; Posted by: John Zern Posted on: 02/18/05 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
