Base a strong legal defense on US copyright law[1]. See also the 'Free Software Copyright Notice' in http://q3u.be/patent/q3ube/ [1] http://www.itworld.com/storage/295325/red-hats-new-patent-troll-weapon-gpl-violation I'm sure Disney will move to prevent any weakening of copyright protections for properly copyrighted and GPL-licensed software codes and derivative works of such software. If the GPL becomes unenforceable, then so becomes Disney's copyright control of Mickey Mouse (and now, Jar Jar Binks) _______________________________________________ Open-graphics mailing list [email protected] http://lists.duskglow.com/mailman/listinfo/open-graphics List service provided by Duskglow Consulting, LLC (www.duskglow.com)
