Those of us who author code know what we're doing is nothing more then
creating as concise an instruction list as we can get.
So we - based on
our understanding of Copyright Law, what it was meant for, and how it's applied
- feel that Copyright as applied to our works is virtually non-existent (or
should be).
And the Copyright Lawyers despair... so they turn to
patents.
And we who author code know software - if anything - is nothing
more then an expression of instructions in a language. An abstract concept and
"yet another way" of expressing math. And so we - repeat copyright law stuff
above for patent law here - feel that Patents do not apply to our
work.
And.... it seems at least the Supremes agree with a portion of our
opinions ;)
