For good or bad, this is the legal fact (or perhaps > "legal fiction") in most countries, and not a myth. s/myth/legal absurdity/ This is one thing that bothers me about the gpl. It essentially tries to create 'code as a legal entity'. That is, it gives rights not to the creator of some code, but to the code itself. For me, the fact that corporations are considered people by the law is ridiculous. Using a license that ends up doing the same thing with code leaves a bad taste in my mouth. max -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
