remember thgat copyright and "droit d'auteur" really are different things:
- copyright is utilitairan, for the benefit of society, see american 
constitution.
- droit d'auteur is a "natural" right for the author, because he "deserves" 
it
while pirates may be inclined to prefer the former, remember that open 
source licences like gnu depend on the latter perspective
