If I find that Nokia is selling phones that infringe my copyright by violating the terms of the license on my software I should not have to fly to Finland to sue them. Fortunately, I do not, even in the absence of a choice of venue clause. If someone in Indonesia is infringing my copyright in Indonesia I will, of course, do nothing regardless of the presence or absence of a choice of venue clause in my license: suing him in the US would be a complete waste of time and I have no money for international ventures. > ...Or get him extradited somehow. Extradition has nothing to do with civil lawsuits. -- John Hasler -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
