   Thank you, good to know someone sees the difference between
   someone's work and the digital representation of it!

The digital representation of work is the key and click stream.
That is a third concept in this discussion (that you raise to
add to the confusion, i suppose).  In outline form:

 1. production
    a. context (community, vibe, etc)
    b. Emacs hacker
    c. keystrokes / mouse clicks
 2. product
    a. Emacs
    b. "private"[0] / mailing list messages
    c. "intangible" :-D perturbations in the context

That 2.[abc] feeds into 1 is vexing to the proprietary mindset,
so we see the rise of professional (paid) confounders, and must
endure their wiles, both opportunistic and premeditated.  It's a
good opportunity to hone one's patience and astuteness, and help
others to do likewise.
