Only the copyright owner has standing to sue for copyright infringement. If I pull a chunk of BSD-licensed code owned by UC out of your GPLd work (being careful not to copy anything you wrote) and distribute it under the BSD what are you going to sue me for? I've copied nothing of yours. -- John Hasler [EMAIL PROTECTED] Dancing Horse Hill Elmwood, WI USA _______________________________________________ gnu-misc-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-misc-discuss
