this copyright thread confuses me, because …. what Haskell code thats
public could these model echo into a ghc edit that isnt gonna be basically
ghc code?  the architecture and naming conventions and code style is quite
distinct and theres very few salient hs code bases that would actually be
salient, and translating an algorithm or data structure from one
programming language does not create copyright risk wrt the translated code
except to the extent string literals or specific data is copyrighted…

i would love examples that ground the ip risk with

now if we were talking abiut a bsd open source nosql db or web server,
there’s would be lots to worry about agpl / gpl/ that commercial one that
converts to apache after k years. in the case of ghc the very style and
architecture just creates a risk of a model generating old no longer
correct ancient ghc / haskell code!

caveats: my family is basically all software ip lawyers and ive had to
navigate quite complex ip nuances in my work over time.
