Dan: I had to laugh out loud (images of a parastic alien monster grabbing
Metamorphisis, sucking out it guts and regurgitating them in a different
form leapt to mind) at your comment, but it was right to the
"ethical/moral" point. I'm an artist, and if what I am hearing about font
code being copyrightable but not the outlines were applied to other
artistic endeavours, it sounds akin to copyrighting the words but not the
novel, or copyrighting the pen and ink but not the illustration. Something
sounds very seriously amiss here. I'm kind of sorry I missed Tuesday's CO.
Did this stuff come up?
