In your previous mail you wrote: This is the same issue. If I give a burned CDROM with OCaml on it (or more realistically my own Free Software made with OCaml), should I register it? => the law applies when you give it to a public so IMHO it applies if you sell it, even for free, or distribute it in a conference, etc, but not when you give it to your friends. As I've said it is an extension to the 500 year old law for books to softwares on physical medium. Regards Francis.Dupont@enst-bretagne.fr
