The idea is that all companies using open source softare, or writing any kind of software, should register to say that they feel the proposed legislation will impact negatively on their business. If your company doesn't yet realise that this is the case, then either you work for IBM/Apple/Microsoft/$other_really_big_company, or someone there needs to do some research into the situation.

Thanks darling. I'll pass it on and see that it gets done. Sure, we're tiny, but damn it... Something beats nothing.
