# Considering Sections of the GPL
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
+ With the remaining time …
|
||||||
|
+ in interest of the experts in the audience …
|
||||||
|
+ let's dig into a few specific sections.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
+ GPL ♥ 17 USC§106(2) & 17 USC§106(3)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
+ Modification and distribution.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Why Permission to Modify?
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
+ Your new copyrights are your copyrights:
|
||||||
|
+ you are affixing it in a tangible medium.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
+ Exclusive right of copyright holders:
|
||||||
|
+ Control on “preparation of derivative works”
|
||||||
|
+ Distribution of the work.
|
||||||
|
+ Note the combination of these.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
+ Again, see 17 USC§106
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
+ N.B.: “derivative works” is USA-centric, modify is more international)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Modification As a Center Provision
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
+ GPL's primary copyright hook is copyright controls on the right to modify.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
+ GPL's central tenant:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
+ You can make a modified version of various types privately as much as you'd like.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
+ When you distribute that modified version, you have requirements to meet.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
+ Technological considerations dictate necessity of more complex rules for
|
||||||
|
certain types of modifications.
