Default Re: Stallman: Why free software shouldn't depend on Mono or

By that example like double click i realised this whole patenting stuff is as stupid as the people working in the patent institution. Who on earth would allow patenting such silly things!!!!

Thank god i live in Europe where there are no patents (yet?).

I understand respecting art, music, movies etc. as something that can't be copied without infringing the copyrights but patenting software is just plain stupid. Someone patents double click then patent triple click and sue everyone using this?? It's like everyone has nuclear bombs but they won't use them because everyone else also has them so launching one bomb would destroy everyone. When will people learn
