said that software companies in Ireland are characterised by the fact
that they have products (as opposed to services, I suppose). This
apparantly came about because in order to get support from Enterprise
Ireland, a company had to have and to *own* a product i.e. they had to
have the IP rights to that product.
Hence perhaps the philosophy behind the Irish govt pushing the software
patent directive.
