Re: FSF assignment policy

The GPL has been crafted exactly in order to have a corpus of software that effectively is free from the restrictions that come automatically with creation of a copyrightable work. Since copyright can't be abolished, the GPL is intended to abolish most of its adverse affects and, in contrast to releasing into the public domain, give the software a teflon coating that lets nobody else reattach them. -- David Kastrup, Kriemhildstr. 15, 44793 Bochum _______________________________________________ XEmacs-Beta mailing list XEmacs-Beta(a)xemacs.org http://calypso.tux.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/xemacs-beta
