Emails sent to the slower MEPs
Well, I didn’t get any new replies today, so I’ve sent the following “please don’t ignore me” message to the tardy MEPs.
Regarding the Directive on the Patentability of Computer-Implemented Inventions
Dear MEP,
I’m writing concerning a letter I sent to you on Friday 8th April
regarding the proposed “Directive on the Patentability
of Computer-Implemented Inventions”. I know that you’re very busy, so I
understand why I’ve not yet received a reply. However, this directive
has now entered the three month adoption/amendment/rejection period
within the parliament, and I wanted to make sure that you received the
letter, and that the content had not been overlooked.I would not normally bother you after only two weeks, but the current
propositions impact on our IT industry would be devastating. I urge you
to read both my objections and those of huge numbers of real developers
within the UK and EU. I hope you’ll then agree that the directive cannot
be allowed to pass in its current form.Yours sincerely,
Adam Wright

As always, I’ll post here with any responses I get.
