Hi,
suppose there's a node that has been created by user A with no tags
on it. Suppose the node has later been moved by user B. A has not
accepted the CT, while B has.
Will the node have to be removed when we go to phase 5 of the license
change?
You could say: yes, because version 2 is clearly a derived work of
version 1.
You could also say: no, because the information "added" in version 2
(new coordinates) overwrites all information that was there from version
1, so there is nothing left to be "protected".
Opinions?
Bye
Frederik
