Embed Notice

@niconiconi@mk.absturztau.be @Suiseiseki@freesoftwareextremist.com Note that you also need to take account international private law. It's possible that in some jurisdictions, the actual coming-into-existence of the copyright on the code is subject to US rules and it may thus be public domain (due to missing the copyright notice), whereas in others, it may be subject to domestic rules (where perhaps the rules of "you wrote it, you own it" always applied).

I can conceivably imagine a situation where some Ancient UNIX versions' copyrights are enforceable only in certain countries, which honestly amuses me a bit, but I'd need to research this in detail to be absolutely sure. I'm kind of surprised that nobody wrote anything about that yet though.
