The "No problem Bugroff" license.
13
Richard Stallman of the Free Software Foundation devised, in addition
14
to some marvelous software, the GNU General Public License (GPL for
15
short). Or the CopyLeft it is sometimes called.
17
It is quite a revolutionary document, using the "copyright" tool to to
18
protect your right to use free software.
20
Unfortunately using copyright to protect free software is a lot like
21
using a Jackal to guard the hens.
23
In fact, various inconveniences relating to this have resulted in
24
modifications such as the LGPL (Library General Public License) and
25
more recently the NPL (Netscape Public License)
27
I call these matters mere inconveniences, the real damage will occur
28
when the Jackal's, (sorry, I mean lawyers), actually get to test the
29
GPL in court for the first time.
31
Thus enter my version.
37
Completely unrestrictive.
41
The "No problem Bugroff" license is as follows...
43
The answer to any and every question relating to the copyright,
44
patents, legal issues of Bugroff licensed software is....
46
Sure, No problem. Don't worry, be happy. Now bugger off.
48
All portions of this license are important..
50
"Sure, no problem." Gives you complete freedom. I mean it. Utterly
51
complete. A bit of a joke really. You have complete freedom anyway.
52
"Don't worry, be happy." Apart from being good advice and a good song,
53
it also says :- No matter what anyone else says or does, you still
54
have complete freedom. Now bugger off. The only way to get rid of
55
pushy Jackals is to ignore them and not feed them. The GPL is just
56
begging somebody to take it to court. Can't you just see it. Exactly
57
the same thing that happened when some twit (not Linus) registered
58
Linux as his own personal trademark. People got upset, started a fund,
59
and hired, off all ruddy things, a Jackal to try and defend the
60
chicken! Who really benefits from this trademark / patent / copyright
61
thing anyway? The lawyers. Who made it up in the first place? The
62
lawyers. OK so the last part of the license sounds a bit harsh, but
63
seriously folks, if you are a :-
65
Lawyer asking these legalese questions... You should go off and learn
66
an honest trade that will actually contribute to life instead of
67
draining it. Programmer asking these legalese questions... You have
68
amazingly powerful tools in your hands and mind, use them to ask and
69
answer the worthwhile questions of life, the universe and
70
everything. Stop mucking about with such legal nonsense and get back
71
to programming. User/reader asking these question... Don't worry. Go
72
off and be happy. Have fun. Enjoy what has been created for you.
