Hello,

when I first read that britisch school kids should get education in
copyright law, I first thought "wow great, at least they learn something
reasonable". But then I followed the link and I saw what it really is
about... it's all influenced by the music industry - and now guess in which
direction it goes. :-(

And before someone asks a stupid question: Of course it has to do with
software - it's the same copyight law. Anything you can say about
downloading music also applies to downloading software. (There is just less
good free music yet than there is free software)
