That has absolutely nothing to do with documentation, which is a literary work
unto itself. We're not talking about a "computer program".
Either you didn't read or didn't understand my answer, so I'll try it again.
Here's another way to look at it: if I write a book and include a set of
annotations and glosses in the margin, and then extract them via a computer
program from the electronic version of my book and publish them separately, do I
lose copyright in my annotations and glosses? Your position would seem be yes,
I lose copyright in the glosses, which is contrary to copyright law everywhere
that I know of - and all the treaties as I understand them.
The difference here is that some to a lot of the documentation (annotations and
glosses) was written before the code (book)...[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
