						 <p>Newsforge concluded:</p> <blockquote> <p>It is clear from the conference that some form of change must be made, whether from the judicial or legislative branch, USPTO, or a grass roots movement. Most likely it will take a grass roots movement of patent lawyers in tandem with engineers and developers to see any changes in the near future.</p> </blockquote> <p>Time for the FFII to open shop in the States.</p>
