Interesting, but I think it's easily distinguishable. This case involves Softman, who bought collections of software from Adobe and repackaged them for resale. The court treated this as a sale rather than a licensing, invoked the first-sale doctrine (thus neglecting any incidental copying Softman was doing), said the EULA (which was only displayed for assent when the software was installed) did not apply to Softman because they had not assented, and told Adobe to stuff it. Here we have collections which unambiguously are collections: the question about statically linked software is precisely whether or not it is a collection. -- John Cowan http://www.ccil.org/~cowan [EMAIL PROTECTED] To say that Bilbo's breath was taken away is no description at all. There are no words left to express his staggerment, since Men changed the language that they learned of elves in the days when all the world was wonderful. --The Hobbit -- license-discuss archive is at http://crynwr.com/cgi-bin/ezmlm-cgi?3
