Me paper be published!
My parents just received a copy of a book on a collection of papers on software patents, and my paper was published in there! The book is titled “Software Patents: Protection and Licensing” (ISBN: 81-314-0672-5). The publisher is ICFAI, a southern India university press. I’ve personally not seen the book yet but the parents tell me that the printing quality is quite good. It is apparently retailing for USD17, which is a fair value for university students.
I did not recognize the other authors except for Bruce Perens, who also contributed a paper on software patents for the book. Perhaps it’s time for an update of the paper? Much has happened in the last one year since I wrote the paper in the area of patents and an update at this time may be timely.
