This is about Copyrights, not patents. IP is usually covered by Patent,
law but IANAL.
This covers 'software' that is copyrighted. It seems the smallest
impact for Newtonians would be that UNNA can now host any piece of
software that was originally released on:
Floppies
Linear Flash Cards
Came with the Newton
but not necessarily anything that also had original-source
Internet-based distribution.
