It hasn't. But just as in any other case of copyright infringement, the authors have the exclusive right to control copying and distribution, and can demand that infringement be brought to a halt. Authors who distribute under the GPL have already done their part to create more free software. Stopping code grabbers from using their work in non-free products is the second part - if the grabbers won't produce free software, they will at least be forced to pay for non- free replacements. _______________________________________________ gnu-misc-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-misc-discuss
