Which is okay for 4.4bsd derived files, but if I checked in a file to the tree with the standard license 2 years ago, you now have to contact me to get it removed, because its my copyright, not UCBs. This gets more complicated if I was hit by a bus in the mean time, or am now out of reach ("screw computers! I'm going to become a hermit!"), because you have to contact _me_. Well, at least that's how I understand it. -- Bill Fumerola - Network Architect, BOFH / Chimes, Inc. billf@chimesnet.com / billf@FreeBSD.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-advocacy" in the body of the message
