Hi Peter, Thanks again for your answers. :)

You wrote: "I'm afraid you will need to read up on copyright law if you really want to understand the consequences of using a open source/content license. There's really no way around that." I'm afraid i'm starting to see your point.

You wrote: "There is unfortunately no good online text explaining the concept that I can point you to, but any decent text book on copyright law covers the subject." Could you please recommend me a decent text book on copyright law? It should preferrably be easily understood by laypeople (i.e. people without legal training), it should cover well the topic of open source, copyleft and free licenses, it should be slender enough to be humanly readable within a small percentage of single lifespan of a normal human-being, and be written in either English or Hebrew (if it's exceptionally well-written, it can be in French or German, as well).
