You could say the same thing about police-your-neighbor licenses, which say "if you become aware of a possible license violation, you must immediately notify the copyright holder or you lose your license, too". I consider these obviously and extremely non-free. Does that means I want to make it "harder for the individual copyright holders to defend their work", too? No, of course not. I don't mind if copyright holders make their copyright easier to defend--until it comes at an unacceptable cost of freedom to licensees. I believe choice of venue (and police-your-neighbor) clauses do so. -- Glenn Maynard -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
