What is Publication? · Saturday September 30, 2006 by Crosbie Fitch

Publication is the deliberate and voluntary delivery of one’s unpublished art to one or more members of the public.

Who is a member of the public?

A person unilaterally entreated without consideration of their identity.

I comment on this just to juxtapose it with my comment a moment ago :-)

Use is not delivery.

Letting kids interact with a toy robot running a GPL OS in a toy shop is not delivering the robot or its software.

Purhasing the robot is the point at which it, and the software within it, is delivered to you – whereupon you consequently become a software licensee.

I can tell I need a What constitutes delivery? question.

Thanks.
