The truth of the matter is that there is no victory for "open source licenses". "Open source" licenses and "proprietary" are interpreted using the exact same rules. Each license (contract) is individually interpreted according to the state common law of contracts.
This was a victory for open licenses because a court upheld the understanding that if the conditions of the license are not met, then copying and distributing is infringement. That this victory may apply to other forms of licenses does not lessen the victory for open licenses. _______________________________________________ gnu-misc-discuss mailing list gnu-misc-discuss@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-misc-discuss
