Subject: [HACKERS] US Patents vs Non-US software ...
Just curious here, but are patents global? PostgreSQL is not US
software,
but it is run within the US ... so, would this patent, if it goes
through,
only affect those using PostgreSQL in the US, or do patents somehow
transcend international borders?
