Hrm, this doesn't follow automatically. I'm aware of international treaties covering reciprocation of *copyrights*, but none that would mean Urheberrecht has force outside of Germany regardless of where the work was written. Do you have a reference for this? For all I know he does have a legitimate claim under German law that cdrkit infringes his Urheberrecht, but cdrkit is not a German product per se. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
