So if evryone agrees here, it would be good, if the allegro-project
could officially vote against software patents in Europe

    http://swpat.ffii.org/
    http://petition.eurolinux.org/

This vote should be made clear on the website and postet in newsletters, etc.
Also we should ask other projects to do so.

Anyone against this ?
