C'mon, Rahul. Are you saying that the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (Foley Square) somehow had jurisdiction to hear the copyright infringement case in spite of plaintiffs' failure to register their purported United States copyrights? http://books.google.com/books?id=xKPj3joRBZ4C&pg=PT435&lpg=PT435&dq=copyrights+jurisdiction+registration&source=web&ots=-wyzPn2c7v&sig=7QOYsOyqITSLy-fbZcnVh30tydo&hl=en&sa=X&oi=book_result&resnum=8&ct=result Please elaborate. TIA. regards, alexander. -- http://gng.z505.com/index.htm (GNG is a derecursive recursive derecursion which pwns GNU since it can be infinitely looped as GNGNGNGNG...NGNGNG... and can be said backwards too, whereas GNU cannot.) _______________________________________________ gnu-misc-discuss mailing list gnu-misc-discuss@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-misc-discuss
