Hi Andy, Public domain *does* exist in Europe - it contains all material that cannot be protected or which legal protection lapsed. The issue is whether it is legally possible for a copyright holder to dedicate voluntarily protected material to the public domain, where scholars diverge. My apologies if this pushes an open door :) Kind regards, -- Romain Berrendonner AdaCore SAS berre...@adacore.com 46 rue d'Amsterdam +33 1 49 70 67 16 F-75009 Paris _______________________________________________ License-discuss mailing list License-discuss@opensource.org http://projects.opensource.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/license-discuss
