I am a university student researching software copyright law, and in 
particular the protection it affords to user interfaces.
I would be grateful if you could send your opinions of the decision
in Lotus v Borland which decided that user interfaces, in this case the  
menu command heirachies are not to be afforded copyright protection.
This was a U.S decision, but I would like to hear views from programmers
in any country as to whether this is a desirable path to follow.

Mail to: hc321@gre.ac.uk

Thanks for your help,

Craig Hodges
