Re^2: License issues in Module::Install

Heh ... that's amazing:

<quote>The ACTUAL situation is that "All rights reserved" has become utterly meaningless since the creation of the Bern Convention in 1968</quote>

Over 40 years later, and it's still being kicked around and mis-interpreted.

Cheers,
Rob

Actually it's a 1886 year convention. Berne_Convention_for_the_Protection_of_Literary_and_Artistic_Works. So it's more than 120 years.	[reply]

Caselaw changes, textbooks aren't updated, new fools born every day ... many things possible here on flat Earth :)	[reply]

"Utterly meaningless" is a misrepresentation of the facts; and the timeline is munged as well. It's become redundant; and according to Wikipedia (with appropriate grains of salt taken) it's only been formally so for a decade.	[reply]
