I take the first one. My legal knowledge in this area of software parents is limited. Please let me know if I am wrong, but the second one sounds to be just semantics over what I said. It's not that coming up with an invention in software domain is easy, it rather is that an average software patent application is closer to being obvious in practice than it is for some other areas. If there is a good invention in the domain of software that is novel, non-obvious and useful, it should be patentable. If someone else working on the same problem domain can come up with the same idea in a short time, then the idea is obvious and should not be patentable. I am not (yet) ready to believe that human processes in software domain make them more or less intelligent than in other domains. How can they then come up with "real" inventions faster or more often to not require patent protection?
