- what's APOSD
- "it's illegal since it's copyrighted" makes no sense to me
- The settlement should be exactly to cover their licenses for training

Please ask John Ousterhout what his cut of this settlement will be, and whether or no he agreed to it and finds it acceptable.
If he's not getting a cut of this settlement then that's between him and his publisher.
That's the innate disparity and unfairness here --- time was when one made a design which was physically instantiated and replicated, the copies would wear out and one would then earn money again on replacement copies --- this is just another example of the commons and other resources being grabbed by profiteers who use them to make money as opposed for public benefit.
