Re: HIT: COPYRIGHT OF TEACHER-MADE AR TESTS

[Carol Simpson <Carol_Simpson@UNT.EDU>]

This isn't exactly true. Both copyright =and= licensing issues apply
when dealing with computer softare. However, if the RL logic holds,
Microsoft can claim copyright on every word processing document I
create. I doubt such a claim is enforceable, even if it were included in
the license agreement.

People-

We have to LEARN and REALIZE that with computer programs we are really
dealing with DIFFERENT ISSUES.

With computer programs, copyright laws DO NOT APPLY.

ONLY LICENSING ISSUES.

Those words printed in software envelopes that most people ignore when
they open their computer software.

These words are very fine-printed we can hardly read anyway.

Take care,
