S.
I thought a written document had to be complied with until they change
the terms. In other words, their bound by their own rules until they
change it.
But I guess I'm mistaken and corrected.
A license is a contract between you and the copyright owner. It spells
out the terms under which the owner is allowing you to use the
copyrighted work. It makes no sense to say that there is a contract
between the owner and him self. If I own a toll bridge and charge $1
to cross it, do I have to pay a dollar to myself each time I cross it
as well?
I guess I was getting confused with ISO 9001-2008 where the saying is
"Say what you do and do what you say".
Thanks for the clarification.
Paul
