GPL / FDL equivalent for medicines won't be about packaging. It would be about giving people the complete recipe, not just the ingredients, showing them how to make it, and letting anyone, anywhere, make that medicine, at whatever price and sell at whatever price, or even free-of-cost, to whoever, anywhere in the world, on a doctor's prescription if essential. we will thus have a world where medicines for the really poor and the really sick, versus pimple-creams for the rich and pimpled, will happen. the packaging can be whatever way, it will just say this produced using these ingredients, formula, counter-checked, verified, and certified to be so by this authority, and sold at this price, with this expiry details and other mandated text. :-) LL _______________________________________________ ilugd mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd
