Folks, I'm listening to a legal presentation on publishing from the Waterside writer's conference, and Jon Tandler of Isaacson, Rosenbaum, Woods & Levy, P.C. says there was a recent ruling by the Second Circuit Appeals court (I think it covers New York state and maybe CT) - that sounds like it goes beyond the GPL.
Essentially, he's saying that Second Circuit ruling protects source code as free speech, as opposed to something that can be copyrighted. Tandler went on to say that the rulings of other US circuit courts are in conflict with this ruling. Can anyone here point me to the current case law for these rulings, as how they affect the GPL? What have other circuits said about source code, free speech, and copyright law? If this isn't the right forum, can you point me in the right direction? Thanks, Michael Jang _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
