It doesn't cover hardware, in the same way that it doesn't cover patents, and it doesn't cover pro-DRM laws. It merely arranges, as best as we've managed a copyright license to do, that they can't be used as excuses (or tools) to disrespect the freedoms that the GPL demands all licensees to respect for other users. -- Alexandre Oliva http://www.lsd.ic.unicamp.br/~oliva/ FSF Latin America Board Member http://www.fsfla.org/ Red Hat Compiler Engineer [EMAIL PROTECTED], gcc.gnu.org} Free Software Evangelist [EMAIL PROTECTED], gnu.org} - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
