LOL! "contagion"... take your meds Hyman.

And try to explain to your doctor how "mere aggregation" using dynamic
linking with a "library" put in the same container (like
ZIP/JAR/ISO/whatnot)/same media together with a "program" is somehow
different than "mere aggregation" using static liking with a "library"
put in same container (like .EXE container)/same media together with a
"program" from the copyright view point.

There's no difference between static and dynamic linking in regards to
"mere aggregation" and copyright silly.

regards.
