I transfered this amended proposal to the wiki:
http://tools.ipol.im/wiki/author/code/copyright_and_patents/

I think it can now be proposed to the scientific committee.

PS: I also found these references about software patents; they are
    written by people opposing such patents, but provide lots of
    informations aobout the current patent situation in Europe:
    * Software Patents by Ciaran O'Riordan
      http://ciaran.compsoc.com/software-patents.html
    * the software patents wiki
      http://en.swpat.org/
    * positions on european software patents by the Foundation for a Free
      Information Infrastructure and Free Software Foundation Europe
      http://eupat.ffii.org/
      http://fsfe.org/projects/swpat/
