Re: GPL and other licences

   There is nothing unusual about copyright law distinguishing between
   groups of people.  You can show a movie at home and let your
   wife/SO watch it with you without the copyright holder have a claim
   that you are having an unauthorized public display.  Do you think
   that if you showed the movie at a public event you could say that
   all the viewers were part of the family of man?

Once again, people are starting to compare apples to rocks.  The
distribution terms for movies are different than to software.  So
please stop comparing two different things that have nothing in
relation.
