Thanks. I think this sounds right and sort of what I thought
but wanted to make sure.
So to give an example, it is like someone writing a book
to describe and explain Newton's laws of physics. The author
will copy-right the book itself, but Newton's laws themselves
which are described in the book are still "open" and can be
used by anyone else without getting permission from the
book author to use them.
In this case, the laws happened to be the Ada language rules
and the authors are these companies listed. But the Ada
rules themselves are open and can be used by anyone
without permission.
