It's scary when a term like "intellectual property" comes into acceptable usage. When people use terms like it you know there can be no basis for rational discussion on the issue, as the basis of the whole philosophical system is flawed. You are not granted the right to ownership of an idea, but to it's exclusive use for a limited period. Frankly, if MeeGo as an organization is more interested in creating licensed hardware and eliminating reasonable fair use, then it's not the platform for me. _______________________________________________ MeeGo-community mailing list [email protected] http://lists.meego.com/listinfo/meego-community
