For comparison, the Finnish law says, "Joka on laillisesti hankkinut tietokoneohjelman, saa valmistaa ohjelmasta sellaiset kappaleet ja tehdä ohjelmaan sellaisia muutoksia, jotka ovat tarpeen ohjelman käyttämiseksi aiottuun tarkoitukseen. Tämä koskee myös virheiden korjaamista." (Tekijänoikeuslaki § 25j 1 mom, 446/1995) unofficially translated by me as: "He or she who has legally obtained a computer program may make those copies of or changes to the program that are necessary for using the program for the intended purpose. This includes the right to fix defects in it." (Apparently this right can be revoked by a contract.) -- %%% Antti-Juhani Kaijanaho % [EMAIL PROTECTED] % http://www.iki.fi/gaia/ %%% "" (John Cage)
