New EU IP crime directive proposed

The EU have proposed a new directive on criminal measures aimed at ensuring the enforcement of intellectual property rights. A html version is also available. Pamela Jones at Groklaw is concerned that it is the kind of legal framework that companies like SCO would have a field day with. Looks to me at first glance like an adjunct to the IPR enforcement directive passed in the Spring of 2004.
