I was under the impression that the same was true in the U.S. Short
of being granted a patent, I don't think a protocol can be
protected. Again, look at the WINE example. Or any of the .NET
clones. (I believe there are several now.)
Of course that wouldn't prevent a company from trying to protect
it, the deeper pockets theory.
Additionally, one time a lawyer told me 'Add this and that inside a
contract, although
the respective item is not valid/legally ok. Anyway, if you write the
clause,
the other party might think it is.'
