[Fwd: Re: Debian and copyrights]

Take a look at that :
(it is a part of my investigation)

It is more funny than really implementable... but in some way, it makes
sense ;c)

I remember reading somewhere that you can give the copyright to just about
anyone, and Dhingis Kahn (The mogolian leader, don't know how he is
spelled in English). And if you really want to prevent any licence change,
then just assign it so someone that is no longer alife (this way you can
state your world view, if you choose Ghandi, Marx, Charlemagne, Einstein,
Neumann or others). They surely won't change your licence... (well, one
would have to check for possible Heirs)

And what if you assign copyright to your cat?

No guarantee that that would work legally, though.
