None of them are using that paper to claim that their actions are ok, so this new point doesn't prove your old point. The current level of violations is only overwhelming the GPL enforcers only because the number of GPL enforcers is, approximately, three. That was one a few years ago, and it'll be ten in a few year's time. The problem's rate of growth is under control. If violators thought the GPL wasn't valid, they would violate it flagrantly. But they don't. They violate it quietly, either because they don't know or because they're hoping no one will see their violation. Again, a glance at reality shows your theories can't be true. Back to the drawing board, Alex. -- CiarĂ¡n O'Riordan, +32 477 36 44 19, http://ciaran.compsoc.com/ Support free software, join FSFE's Fellowship: http://fsfe.org Recent blog entries: http://fsfe.org/en/fellows/ciaran/ciaran_s_free_software_notes/using_latex_to_make_pdf_documents_with_japanese_characters http://fsfe.org/en/fellows/ciaran/ciaran_s_free_software_notes/links_sean_daly_kde_swpat_chessboxing http://fsfe.org/en/fellows/ciaran/ciaran_s_free_software_notes/links_india_pats_clipperz_freegis_rms_emacs http://fsfe.org/en/fellows/ciaran/ciaran_s_free_software_notes/using_and_writing_emacs_22_input_methods _______________________________________________ gnu-misc-discuss mailing list gnu-misc-discuss@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-misc-discuss
