Oh they're able to grasp it, they just refuse to. Here, Alex Terekhov's "hobby" is knocking the FSF; he's a pure troll, but fairly harmless, really. Hadron is probably a shill for some body with an interest in spreading FUD about the GPL. Rjack might be, too. Hyman Rosen is different; he reckons he's found a bug in copyright law, based on a mechanical, pedantic reading of some laws, and he's arguing to try and find the flaw; a bit like I'm doing. Maybe one or two of these people want to misappropriate GPL'd code too. -- Alan Mackenzie (Nuremberg, Germany). _______________________________________________ gnu-misc-discuss mailing list gnu-misc-discuss@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-misc-discuss
