I mean, Automattic's never been bitchy about these things, it's not owned by the RIAA, and at the same time, blatant copyright theft just isn't cool... Like splogging kinda - with proper citing of sources and backlinks, it's quite helpful. It's only when they start claiming your content as their own and unlawfuly making money off your efforts that it goes from help to pain-in-the-back in record time. Copyright laws on open source are rarely there to sap you of the good stuff, you just have to look at them carefully IMO. You’re welcome Matt.
