1. First, I'm looking to build a coalition of ethical programmers
and activists for progressive/"radical demoratic" social change. Is
there a usenet newsgroup, mailing list, web forum, or other places
you could refer me to? [...]
Is there anything wrong with any of the following groups:
* The GNU Project
* FSF
* FSF Europe
* FSF Latin-America
* FSF India
* League for Programming Freedom
2. My second and only partially related question -- can someone
advise me on copylefting some general ideas. I'm hoping my ideas
are not copyrightable, not patendable...but in case they are, is
there a way of pre-emptively copylefting them so that a
corporate/commercial entity doesn't grab the ideas and try to
own/control them? [...]
Ideas are not copyrightable, a expression of a idea is though and
those are copyraightable upon creation.
