At the details of what, retard? Here is the details:

Given: object A and object B, each being original work under copyright
(i.e. computer program works A and B in binary form vs source code form).

Case 1: aggregation using tar.

Case 2: aggregation using linker.

Case 3: aggregation using ISO CD image making program.
