But trademarks don't cover works. Your whole message treats trademarks as a funny sort of copyright which sometimes doesn't follow chains of derivation. They aren't. They're a completely different beast.
For example, your model doesn't deal at all with the fact that we have the string "IBM" packaged at many points. It's a trademark, and there is nothing like what you'd call a free license for it. Would you advocate removing the trademarks of IBM, Apple, Bitstream, Mozilla, and AT&T? How about TeX? -Brian -- Brian Sniffen [EMAIL PROTECTED]
