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

[Richard M Stallman]

    So it only uses "intellectual property" as a generic concept, and does not 
    adopt the concept as a legal concept - unlike some recent EU legislation. 

That is good in that it does less to ingrain the term "intellectual
property" than it might have done.  But that does nothing to reduce
its PR effect.  We still need to make a vigorous condemnation of that
term and the ideas it stands for.  (See
http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/not-ipr.html for more explanation.)

The exceptions in TRIPES unfortunately do not do much good, because
they place the copyright holder first and the rest of society a poor
second.
