It's my understanding (and this is a draftsman trying to make sense of legalese, so if wrong, I'd welcome learning such is the case) that when you find capital-U Use, this is the definition as given in 1g, while little-u use would be the dictionary definition, the same manner the capital-D Distributing is defined in 1c.
Therefore, you could read 1g to mean: "Capital-U Use includes the dictionary definition of use and also includes copying, Distributing, editing, formatting, modifying, translating, or otherwise creating something else with it." So are the lawyers here finally rubbing off on me, or did I farge that all up? ~Jimmy Domsalla qtgg.icehex.net ----- Original Message ----- From: "Peter Brink" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, February 25, 2004 3:54 PM Subject: Re: [Ogf-l] OGL - definition 1g > onsdag 25 februari 2004 21:05 skrev du: > > > > Unless the license implies that a definition includes other interpretations > > of a word via reference, rely primarily on the definition. > > > > Lee, I'm relying on the definition.
