It's a bit funny to be relying on copyright for a license to work when the copyright will eventually expire.

- dragonwriter 7mo agoLicenses are permissions to use a privilege which some legal rule (e.g., copyright) makes exclusive. You don't need a license when a work is out of copyright. Its funny to be relying on copyright licenses when what people really want to to do is rewrite the law, but that's a different issue.
- Marsymars 7mo agoI'm saying the copyright on the license will expire, at which point the parts of the license that rely on its own copyright will no longer be enforceable.
