If the distributor of GPL-licensed code does not believe that the GPL is a valid license, then on what basis is the distribution happening? Copyright forbids it. Thus, distribution is evidence that the distributor has read and agreed to the terms, voluntarily, not through their being enforced. That's not very different from one of the cases that has been cited here, where a patent owner was seen as giving permission for his patent to be used when he did not stop, and indeed worked with, the company which was using it. _______________________________________________ gnu-misc-discuss mailing list gnu-misc-discuss@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-misc-discuss
