I think you diverted from the original topic. But still: Causing the linked library to be copied into memory is governed by copyright law. Unless you can find an excpption (such as fair use or implied license), causing such copying would infringe any copyright on the library. You can't argue implied license if the library's license is overtly violated. You can't argue fair use if the library author's goals (as described in the GPL and its preamble) are cleverly and deliberately being undermined. -- Rahul http://rahul.rahul.net/ _______________________________________________ gnu-misc-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-misc-discuss
