      Softmaking-territiriya law?


                        I is not a freeloader,

                        I have a partner.

                        (From boring)


   Immediately suggest to those who decided that
This article is intended not for him,
still volunteered to finish reading it to the end and start a 
lively discussion on the topic of all friends and send the 
results to the editorial office.


   This article is intended both to program producers, and for 
distinguished users and is divided into sections.

And softmeykery are free to skip parts about user'am and vice 
versa. 

   If the article would have no response,
then maybe it will mean that
SPECCY manufacturers of commercial programs, no more!


  Sincerely,

All:

         a bit about piracy ...


   How do you feel about the company pursued ORT, titled: 
"Video Spaces Law? Do not hurry, saying that "it does not 
concern me!" Of course, first of all it affects iteresy 
videoproizvoditeley and is unlikely to greatly affect the 
average viewer. But of all this turmoil, our ongoing 
broadcaster, is One other benefit. You know what, it turns out

video piracy is bad, for it can be
to get (if you want osoobom victim
from piracy) "in places not so remote." Russia does not have a 
clue that a hell of a work-rewriting

cassettes with movies and promoting them on the market without 
the permission of the authors, perhaps a punishment! Especially 
do not know (not knows now?) that the film-this is the same

property, as a country house, car, television, etc. (As one 
friend of mine: "Apparently, not enough cultural multur ...")



   All this should be true for
computer programs, and in fact,
Alas, we never thought about
that extending the program without the formal permission of the 
author, we break Law "On Copyright and Related Rights".


   Spectrum is increasingly turning to computer altruists. And 
this process can be described as a "voluntary-coercive, ie 
producer still wants to get something to work, he

do not give, and he resigned, leaving the stage SPECCY. And it 
may well be that the authors just leave the platform.


   If you look at things objectively, then
We have developed paradoxical situatsiyaavtory (not all, of 
course) are themselves hackers. So it turns out that stealing 
and break from each other, and then another, the authors

and hi pass. It's a shame ... Frankly,
that PhF once sinned in this business, I
I apologize from the authors of this disgraceful event.

   Let's think about what a hacker vzlamvat author of the 
program? Perhaps, for in order to get free to copy

copy of the program for distribution. Unlikely
whether a person will climb in the protection of due
curiosity, though not rule out
this option. Given that higher-quality soft has a solid 
defense, a hacker breaks his head and a program of a certain 
period, and sometimes even incorrect (I'm not on my head), 
rather than just call the author and agree on distribution. 
Perhaps many frightening word "license". Then offer option 
described below. 

Softproizvoditelyam:

       "O Reciprocal Licensing


   Video product intellectual, watching a movie in terms of 
wealth does not give us anything. By the way, the computer 
program has the same properties. Unlike physical products (eg, 
tables) is that kuplyaprodazha performed at a level not the 
product itself, but at the level of possession rights the 
product. Ie You do not sell the program, and part of the rights 
to it. 

   And who said that one program, rather, the rights to it, can 
not be exchanged for similar rights to another program?


   Ie The authors may change their copyright developments 
(so-called "Netting") and do not necessarily translate all of 
the cash nexus. Bring example in the mathematical style;):


   Let there be "well, very cool program"
x1 f1 from the firm with the price of the license C1 and less 
cool program "x2 by firms with f2 price p2. Of course, the 
price of the first program of C1, because of greater coolness 
x1, higher than p2 at (C1-C2). Firms f1 and f2 are two agree to 
exchange licenses, and f2 pay the difference of values or

additional rights to the program
(Empowerment), or the rights to another
program, or money. Of course, we
talk only about the program authors.

   And yet, it will be possible to solve the problem
"Mutual crack'ov, as manufacturers
interested in producing quality software. Or am I wrong 
somewhere? 



      "A little bit about licensing ..."


   Apparently, after all, many shy
dealing with licenses. Nevertheless,
this is the most effective way of promotion and treatment of 
any intellectual product.


   Distinguish types of licenses the following items:

   - Complete, it is general, it is
exclusive license, the most expensive
license, brings a one-time gains, including all rights to the 
program, the purchase This type of license, the author loses

rights to self-propagation
programs and any other commercial use of the product.

   - Non-exclusive license; profit
Depending on the contract includes
part of the rights to the product provided for in
license.

   For example: as I understood Edition
Spectrofon'a distributes the latest issue of the scheme of a 
general license. 

   If anyone is interested in how to be paid an honorarium for 
the author's program, then here as there are several types of

payments:

   - Lump sum (usually on the condition
general license);

   - Depending on the number of copies sold (a percentage of 
sales); 

   - Combined (lump-sum payment (usually a percentage of 
license fee) plus a percentage of sales). 

   How to organize rasprostraneniezavisit on you, softmakers.



                  All:

              "The benefits ..."


   Dear sinkleristy,

   I asolyutno sure that none of us
interest to such a wonderful
machine as SPECCY gone into oblivion. After
it all depends on us.

   Buying original copies of programs,
you get a lot of benefits and
keeps the program producers and
stimulate them to work even better. Acquiring illegal copies
you support piracy in their community; lose all support
programs (if not the last correctly
work) will not benefit the acquisition of these developments. 
Thinking that price hack program, below the original price you 
are wrong (remember the phrase "we are not rich enough" to buy 
cheap stuff!). 

   Potential pirates.

   If you think that spending on the brain
hacking, you do not have enough skilled at keeping their 
license files, it is not mistaken ... So, finish burglary for 
breaking and distribution of the benefits it can not be held.

Otherwise, if in addition you are and proizviditelem then 
accordingly the security of your programs is no guarantee. 

   Dear manufacturers.

   Reconsider your views on what
protection only guarantees you pribyleto not (genius phrase, 
all that made man, a man and breaks)

should seek other forms of promotion to market.


Softproizvoditelyam:
