The GPL does not remove copyright, it depends on it. So code released under the GPL will still have copyright associated with it, it just has a different importance than for proprietary code.

True, but the individual contributors hold the copyright, not LibLime alone.

The topic is trademark not copyright.
Commercial entity LibLime is going for ownership of the trademark "Koha" in NZ.
IMHO a bad faith thing. ( and should be voided, usually you can't trademark a previously used by others tag as your own)
IANAL and all that jazz.
Koha creators asking for help in trademark dispute Posted Nov 24, 2011 20:15 UTC (Thu) by giraffedata (subscriber, #1954) [Link] The topic is trademark not copyright. Actually, the topic of this subthread is copyright. It applies to the trademark master topic because if someone owns the copyright on X, it's powerful reason to believe that, when you look closer, you'll find he also owns the trademark people use to refer to X.
