[Tfug] [johns at fsf.org: Help research law school courses and "intellectual property"]

[Claude Rubinson]

Regarding the below message from the FSF:

The online archives of the course catalog go back to 1993, in which we
already have course on "Intellectual Property."  I've already sent
this info to rms.  I'm pretty busy and am hoping that somebody else
might want to go to the Main or Law library find out just when we
started offering courses on IP.  If you do so, please let the list
know so that we don't duplicate our efforts.

Claude

If you are at a university which has a law school, please go to the university
archives, and check the old course catalogs to see when classes in the law
school began using the propaganda term "intellectual property" (see
http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/not-ipr.html) in the names of courses. Please
send the date, school, course title and description to rms at gnu.org.

wants to own the entertainment industry. This isn't how Microsoft spins it, of
course. It maintains that it has no choice...It's all complete nonsense."
