My comment was not intended to be about moral issues, but business models. The only link to "morality" is what around tangibles often gets the word "theft". I don't believe that word ever applies to intangibles like software, so tried to make a comparison to other activities. Since this is a business model issue I invite anyone who wants to discuss this to do so in the Free Software Business mailing list. Thanks to Bjorn Reese for pointing out that list. http://www.crynwr.com/cgi-bin/ezmlm-cgi/0/ I also have to apologize for confusing two Alex's in this list in my last reply. -- Russell McOrmond, Internet Consultant: <http://www.flora.ca/> "Make it legal: don't litigate, use creative licensing" campaign.
