A quote from the debates:-
<quote>
Now, about software, their opinion was that software as such is
covered by the copyrights. In embedded software, they wanted to have
this patenting, product patenting. We did not agree to that because
our professions will not be benefited. The richest person of the
world has been benefited consecutively for the last 11 years. Do you
know his name? … (Interruptions) Yes, it is Bill Gates, who is
good friend of some of yours. He was taken to Andhra Pradesh by the
poster boy. The poster boy has gone but the Microsoft Chairman’s
name is there. … (Interruptions) It will be used by IBM, it will
be used by Microsoft and not by our great professionals. So, do not
incorporate it. We are happy that CKA has been deleted and removed
in the amendment.
