Which part of "functionality is not copyrightable" do you not
understand?
The brief is all about the functionality of APIs, and how the Judge's decision
that they are not copyrightable is spot on. [ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

Section 102(b)
says:
In no case does copyright protection for an original work of
authorship extend to any idea, procedure, process, system, method of operation,
concept, principle, or discovery, regardless of the form in which it is
described, explained, illustrated, or embodied in such work.
So...
copyright protection does not apply
to:
idea
procedure
process
system
method of
operation
concept
principle
discovery
Perhaps you can
explain how an API is not a "method of operation" in which one piece of
software can call the functionality of another piece of software.
I
seriously doubt the Judges will be quite as difficult about how 102(b) applies
as you're being.
