bain_online writes " The Business-Standard of India reports: The Cabinet
is expected to clear the promulgation of an Ordinance for the
introduction of a product patents regime, which will also cover embedded
software and hardware, next Wednesday. There are other news sites
reporting the same. Unfortunately, the majority of the Indian people are
not the least bit concerned, resulting in very low coverage for this
important development."
