"The case to which this brief is attached is not about software. It's about a new way to attach transformers to printed circuit boards"
As long as the patent bar and CAFC keep pushing their jurisdiction into software where it doesn't belong -- neither by law nor reason -- the patent system will be weakened step by step. Reforms will be demanded by necessity to reduce the damage the patent system does to innovation in software where progress is incompatible with centralized monopolies over concepts and math. Ebay and Alice and KSR and AIA are just the beginning of undermining the whole system just so arrogant greedy patent lawyers that want to tax the software industry can have their chance to attack us.
Thanks, CAFC, Giles Rich, Alappat, and Diehr. Now the entire patent system will suffer.
