On http://www.swetake.com/qr/index.html I found good documentation on 
creating QR codes.
But if you're able to create QR code by yourself you should be able to 
read it too.
Of course you have to program everything on yourself. That means pattern 
recognition and QR code decoding.
If you have programmed everything on yourself and based on public 
knowledge (how to create QR codes) it should be ok and you do not need 
to pay.
Or am I wrong?
So is it some kind of illegal or not to build a reader by yourself with 
the knowledge of how creating QR codes?
Again, thanks a lot.
