First, almost the same question i asked to Harald Welte:
is a new GPL needed to address web services that don't publish their source code , appliances (set top boxes, small server boxes, ...) that you rent without getting any source code , and patents (so that anyone that sues a GPL software with a patent has no longer the rights to use it) ?
Second, it seems the European Council of Ministers will keep adding Software Patents at the last moment, each time it meets. Is there a way to stop this ?
Third, we don't hear much now about "trusted" computing that prevents you from doing what you want with your computer: TCPA/TCG/NGSCB/...
is it because it is mostly inside appliances and not yet in PCs ?
