You are too informed

Groklaw is our ruination because we know too much about the law and about
software.

The jury were told that copyright does not cover procedure, process, system,
method of operation, concept, principle, or discovery.

Perhaps the jury will look at 'procedure, 'process', 'system' and 'method of
operation' and decide that that must be the only SSO that got into the
compilable code.

I don't envy the jury. They must be thinking that there must be at least some
there, there for the case to get this far. How can they not see any evidence of
it at all?
