The GPL seeks to deny creators of contributions forming derivative work their copyright ownership in the sense that contributors are purportedly impeded to license their copyright as they see fit and should use the GPL and only the GPL instead.
This is generally correct. Since those creators of derivative works do not have the right to create them without permission of the rights holders, caviling at the restrictions is pointless. The restrictions are known, and if they are not acceptable to the author who wishes to create a derivative work, then he should not create that work.
But who said that such intent will be enforced in a capitalist legal system court?
It is copyright law which is being enforced. _______________________________________________ gnu-misc-discuss mailing list gnu-misc-discuss@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-misc-discuss
