[News] [OSS] Can Art (Algorithms) Be Owned?

Software More an Art Than a Science?

,----[ Quote ]
| Merriam-Webster defines "art" as: "The conscious use of skill and creative 
| imagination especially in the production of aesthetic objects." It defines 
| "engineering" as: "The design and manufacture of complex products."

Everything except the 'why?'

,----[ Quote ]
| Speculation runs amok, ranging from a boundless greed and loathing 
| in the corporate culture at Microsoft (from the top down) to 
| scaring FOSS developers and users into submission by the threat 
| of a legal sword of Damocles hanging collectively over their 
| heads. But this is all theory and speculation -- great fodder 
| for discussion, but nothing concrete.
