So then the "you" there refers to "you the user", not "you the author". The GNU License is addressed to the user, not the author, and not from the view of a spectator watching the user/author thingy, as it is an _end-user_ license agreement. An agreement the _end user_ signs to use the free software. Is this right? What exactly then is being said in the quoted passage? > -- > John Hasler > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Dancing Horse Hill > Elmwood, WI USA _______________________________________________ gnu-misc-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-misc-discuss
