Hi The documentation team has been told by various people (over the past several months) that taking screen-shots in Windows could put us at risk. Since those people appeared to have some level of legal awareness or in some cases read and quoted the Windows Eulas the team decided to make it part of the re-branding work to protect us from that sort of vulnerability.
Now a single individual quotes from a children's fairy story saying "the sky is not falling, as Chicken Little imagined." and says that people have wasted time re-branding because MS never takes any organisations or people to court over patent infringements. Gary is also telling people to abandon the established work-flow and use his own personal websites to do the work instead of using the Alfresco websites and ODFauthors places that the Documentation Team established that protect works under copyleft licences that were also agreed within the team. He has carefully timed his advice to coincide with the person the team sees as leader going away on holiday. Can anyone point me to a list of MS court actions or specific parts of the Windows Eula that might put us at risk? A quick google search on the Tom Tom case gave me http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_v._TomTom Can anyone give me more relevant examples? The documentation team is very small and needs a lot of support right now. David is doing great work at developing the functionality of the Alfresco sites and i had hoped that we could just get on with doing the work while Jean was away rather than dealing with a power-grab and disruptive actions seemingly designed to drive morale through the floor.
