LinuxProMagazine: Dear Mr. Obama - Small and Medium Business http://www.digitalmajority.org/forum/t-112147/linuxpromagazine:dear-mr-obama-small-and-medium-business Posts in the discussion thread "LinuxProMagazine: Dear Mr. Obama - Small and Medium Business" - I ask that the government put stipulations on software research financed by public funds (or even largely financed by government funds) that the results be patent free, published, and Free Software. The public has paid for the research once with their tax dollars. Why should they have to pay for it again?
