Software patents are unreadable

There used to be an article, Software patents are unreadable, but it got merged into this article on 2010-05-18. Ciaran 01:47, 18 May 2010 (UTC)

Still useful after 20 years

Note: we should avoid saying that software innovations aren't useful after 20 years. It's not true, and it means that the 20-year term isn't a problem since the idea stops being useful before that term runs out, so being 20 years or 40 years wouldn't make a difference.

The real point is that 20 years wouldn't have been necessary for others to figure it out, so we'd be better off if people used trade secret law. Ciaran 00:49, 20 July 2010 (UTC)

I wonder what the right split is for these topics:

• Software patents produce legal uncertainty
• Software is too abstract, software patent quality is terrible
• The disclosure is useless
• Infringement is unavoidable

There's currently overlap. Ciaran 20:25, 21 August 2011 (EDT)
