Yeah, the GPL FAQ was written with the help by GNU "lawyers" (like GNUtian Moglen and his underlings) with an agenda contrary to public policy on software IP, and who are fond of bullshiting legally illiterate programmers.

It is my general opinion, following Michael, that large portions of the FSF FAQ are simply wrong. </quote> regards, alexander. _______________________________________________ gnu-misc-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-misc-discuss
