You mean copyright on bundle and individual binaries? (external templates, complex macros, and components in object code form "statically linked" with executables and shared libs aside for a moment) DLL copyright: author #1, author #2. app copyright: author #2 (assuming that app doesn't contain any protected expression from source code to an executable by author #1). bundle copyright (on a compilation work under copyright law): author #2 (let's put aside originality hurdle). regards, alexander. _______________________________________________ gnu-misc-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-misc-discuss
