Well, selling . html was written by a lawyer, wasn’t it? ;-)
The primary author of SGML, the language on which HTML was based, was
written by a lawyer (Dr. Charles Goldfarb).
HTML itself came from the SGML Starter Set via Anders Berglund to (now
Sir) Tim Berners-Lee at CERN. Neither Tim nor Robert Cailliau working
on the Web anf HTML at the start were (or are) lawyers.
Shlomi Fish has already responded to you on the GPL, although the FSF
spent a lot of time in consultations in developing GPL v3, and that
included significant input from laywers.
