Quoting Grahame Grieve ([email protected]):

> well, ok, but on what grounds would copyright not apply?

I believe Larry was asserting his view that a software licence consists
solely of functional elements, and no expressive (artistic) elements (or
not enough that a judge would recognise copyright eligibility).

That's a fundamental concept in USA copyright law; I have no idea  how
many other jurisdictions have it.
