The FreeBSD CDs have a "copyright BSDi" on them. I assume this means people can't just copy them. That would be a violation of copyright. However, they can do so with the ISO images. After all, that's what they're there for isn't it? Do the ISOs have a copyright on them? So if someone burns an image from an ISO and sells that, there is no copyright violation. But if someone creates an ISO from an official FreeBSD CD, and then burns a CD from that, they have violated copyright. Correct? -- Dan Langille pgpkey - finger dan@unixathome.org | http://unixathome.org/finger.php got any work? I'm looking for some.
