An interesting article from the trusty BBC found in tonight's browsing around the web:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/7561943.stm
Larry Lessig (according to the article) explains that even free licences set conditions on the use of copyrighted work and if you violate those conditions, the licence disappears and you're a plain ol' copyright infringer.
As the most important currency in the open source community is attribution, this is an important ruling.
