Hm? The GPL is not enforceable. Recipient of GPLed software is free to make use of the GPL or not. When he does not like the default set of rights granted to him by copyright, he is free to make use of the GPL's permission by meeting the respective conditions. But he is also free to chuck it in the bin and act like he never received it in the first place. That's one of its main points. It is also one of the main distractions anti-GPL cranks tend to shout about in misleading ways. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ gnu-misc-discuss mailing list gnu-misc-discuss@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-misc-discuss
