I'm not sure that's accurate. There are a bunch of rules etc about 'IP' in general. I've no doubt Ross was involved in the process but 'orchestrating a campaign' seems a bit grandiose.
Thank you, I stand corrected. I was aware of the copyright issues (where the University tried to say it was theirs) but knew less about the general IP 'land grab' that University undertook. More background is at the link below.
