No it isn't copyright but it doesn't fit into any of the normal areas
of IP law (born secret might be the closest thing (heh neither have

Untill the foundation does it's thing it will have to be handled in
the normal way which means those dealing with the issue useing a
mixture of what knowlage they do have and playing safe.
