Hyman you bandy about the term "open license" as if it is a special, exceptional category of copyright license -- it isn't.
Open licenses are special, since they are offered unilaterally by licensors without communication or agreement with licensees.
ALL copyright licenses WITHOUT exception are simply contracts to be interpreted under the States' common law of contracts:
Rather, when it comes to understanding rights and obligations under a license, the issues involved are identical to contract law, so licenses are construed as contracts for purposes of analysis. _______________________________________________ gnu-misc-discuss mailing list gnu-misc-discuss@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-misc-discuss
