While reading through the LPF patents.texinfo file, I saw the interesting
statistic, "The patent office has now granted at least 2000 software patents
---no less than 700 in 1989 alone, according to a list compiled by EDS."

Does anyone actually have a list of the patent titles on file?  Does the
patent office release such a list?  I would guess that the patent office
is not releasing yearly CD's with at least the text online.

After all, how am I supposed to find which common practice to patent if
I don't what has already been claimed :-) :-(
