Hello,

Specifically, the section titled:

What if the infringement was accidental, inadvertent and unintentional?


The sentence:

"But one could be liable for direct infringement, without knowledge or 
intention, by using or selling or making or having made infringing 
software without more."

Does not appear to be a complete sentence.  "Without more" what?

Perhaps better is:

"But one could be liable for direct infringement, without knowledge or 
intention, by doing no more than using or selling or making 
or having made infringing software."

(If you really want the word "more" and don't just truncate after
"software".)
