Hi!
Since software patents can threaten any free software project, like RSBAC, I
decided to support the Petition for a Software Patent Free Europe. You can
find a link directly on the RSBAC homepage.
To give you an idea what might happen, I suggest a look to the US. Just
search for "selinux patent issues" on Google, and you will find how the
SELinux project can easily be endangered by such patents.
I specially recommend the following slashdot article with comments:
