In the argument of the SF conservancy, the contract is between a distributor of the software and someone receiving the software. If a company only writes the GPL software in question, they wouldn't be liable to their customers in the s

It's a blast from the past for me to see this particular review. I believe it was the first Roger Ebert review I read, shown to be me by my high school English teacher. It's partially what turned me on to Roger Ebert, and from tha
