[pp.int.general] where is the manifesto?

[Reinier Bakels]

I betthe Spanish civil law only considered "intellectual property" as a kind of property right to the extent that it is protected by ony of the specific legal regimes: copyright, patents, trademarks, etc. For a lawyer this is so obvious that I can hardly imagine anything else. Civiil law usually is hardly politically loaded, or controversial.

The term "intellectual property" was used for a long time in France and Spain to refer to copyright and only copyright.  The broader definition that WIPO uses (which is inconsistent with that) is new.
  True. However, as the very 1889 Spanish Civil Law considers the c word as a special kind of property, I think that the broader definition that WIPO uses comes from there -by extension-. You always said it, RMS: we better don't abandon the language battle, otherwise we'll find ourselves stumbling on the odds to achieve our goals. Regards
