No, it has nothing to do with it. Otherwise you would imply that every author not giving away the rights to his/her creation (book, movie, song, painting, house design, etc.) wants to have a "complete megalomaniac control" over their creation. If you feel that the Copyright law should be abolished altogether, that's a different story, but if software is considered to be "literary work" and is specifically listed as subject to Copyright law, then I don't see a reason to treat it any differently than that. > I withdraw. That's a shame. I hope, you'll reconsider. Michael -- license-discuss archive is at http://crynwr.com/cgi-bin/ezmlm-cgi?3
