You and I wouldn't argue about it. We agree there's no "IP" here.
Lawyers are paid to argue about anything and everything, and
judges are paid to listen to them and decide who is the best arguer,
note not which argument is best fit to the laws of nature.
Groklaw demonstrates for us why these cases cannot under current law
obtain the solution they deserve.

Once you add in all the documentation that goes on around a well engineered
software project, it will be considerably beyond your 20 minute estimate.
However, even if you lean over backwards to give a high estimate of the value of
the code, you're probably going to come to something like 2 hours, $100/hour
programmer + $100/hour overhead, times 3 for willful infringement (we're taking
the worst case here) is $1200.
I hate to think how much legal cost has gone into fighting over $1200 (at most)
worth of damage.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
