[Gllug] Richard Stallman at the LSE - 2nd December 2002

[Gordon Joly]

RMS outlined three types of works in his thoughts on copyright

1) Teaching technical

2) Artistic - novels

3) Monographs - the thouhts of a single author

He suggested that the copyright might expire in different timescales for each class. For the first, copyright expired immediately - no copyright.

****

I wanted to ask Stallman which class the GNU Public Licence (GPL) fall under?

****

I know Larry Wall has "the Artistic Licence" for Perl:-)
