So, for example, you can't attach it effectively to the GPL, because the GPL only says the GPL must be preserved, and any additional terms that restrict the user's powers (in this case the power to remove the attachment) can be deleted by anyone. John Cowan http://vrici.lojban.org/~cowan [email protected] People go through the bother of Christmas because Christmas helps them to understand why they go through the bother of living out their lives the rest of the year. For one brief instant, we see human society as it should and could be, a world in which business has become the exchanging of presents and in which nothing is important except the happiness and well-being of the ultimate consumer. --Northrop Frye (1948)
