Oh yeah, I meant legal rights. I don't disagree with you about the human right necessarily, I just haven't thought about it enough. What I mean is, if you think about extreme situa…

The implication about whiteness and being rich goes the other way.

In practice, rights are protections provided by other people, and you can't provide them if you are too fucked up.

There are plenty of sources and the original papers are easily found, but there isn't a proper bibliography with links which I agree is frustrating. For example the first one says …

I meant Unix, but I should have said unlike all Linux distros except Inspur K-UX. I thought there were more but WP doesn't list any and seems comprehensive otherwise. My point was …

OS X is actually certified as a Unix, unlike many Linux distros.

Oh, that's interesting. Sorry for stereotyping you as a torrent user. What kind of large files are you downloading?

Governments are large organizations that are supposed to represent and benefit everyone.

haha, also: Now y

I'm also fine if you pull out bits of my code and use them in your codebase, just as long as you release the changes to those bits. Probably function-level granularity for separati…

I'm fine with static linking, it's even fine if you want to #include my source code. I never paid much attention to the MPL, will see, thanks.

I think this is wrong, distributing within an organization is not considered distribution under the GPL.

I think the restrictions on linking are the primary objection people have, and I guess also the patent stuff in v3. I would like to see a license that is weaker than LGPL (static l…
