The OP proposes to distribute a number of examples in _source_ code. Not even the most rabid software liberators will argue that source code is a derivative work of either the libraries, or the language. Unless source code is plagiarised, or a modification of an existing work, it's original. -- Stefaan A Eeckels -- And as crazy as this sounds, people tend to be able to manage systems better if they have a good internal mental model of how the system works. --Logan Shaw _______________________________________________ gnu-misc-discuss mailing list gnu-misc-discuss@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-misc-discuss
