Deleted the "patent database" item

Item posted by toby cabot <toby> on Tue 02 Dec 2003 03:14:47 AM UTC.

We had a tasklist entry for "A database program designed to store and retrieve patent information." We don't really need this anymore because the US PTO allows searches (see http://patents.uspto.gov/). For more information on why business method patents are a bad idea please see http://www.bustpatents.com/ and for more information on the fight to prevent business method patents in Europe please see http://swpat.ffii.org/.
