Then again, I may be wrong. By carefully reading EULA's, you may find out that some of the stipulations they contain would either [1] illegal in the country that you reside in, hence making it unenforceable, [2] treated differently by existing laws in the country that you reside in, hence making it unenforceable, or [3] is not handled by any enabling law in the country that you reside in, hence making it unenforceable. -- Paolo Alexis Falcone [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________ Philippine Linux Users' Group (PLUG) Mailing List [email protected] (#PLUG @ irc.free.net.ph) Read the Guidelines: http://linux.org.ph/lists Searchable Archives: http://archives.free.net.ph
