Considering HTML code and javascript have, at least in the industry, been considered open source was it is published. What would be ironic is if their web developed stole their code from somewhere.

Their is this whole bunch of 'misguided' individuals that think knowledge is some sort of intellectual property right. I don't know a single programmer, developer, engineer, politician, farmer, lawyer, school teacher, writer, etc. that has not plagiarized material at some point in their professional career. It just the way that we learn things. If you want to carry this to the ultimate extreme, why have schools? Is not every student, teacher, dean, associate, etc. plagiarizing material every day of his/her life? Didn't we do that even when our parents were potty training us? Come on, I do believe that there is some validity to intellectual property rights however, there is a FINE LINE between what is legitimately a right (i.e. music, videos, movies, patented or trademarked items) and what is not.

How about if the english language was patented. Or musical notation. I think the whole intellectual property concept is a bit blown out. Songs for instance, were passed down through generations as community property. Usually to carry the stories and history along with them. Imagine if they had to pay royalties first. ;)

I guess you'd have to an ass to work for someone developing a tool that is used primarily to browbeat employees about their lack of wherewithall at their jobs... Now, I'll get off the soapbox...
