I remember seeing a message on his site that distribution is OK - I didn't know that it was copyrighted. Why does it cost so much anyway? It seems a bit much for something that's supposed to be free. By the way, someone told me that the FreeBSD DVD contained the old BSD source code. If've checked the FBSD DVD site, but I can't tell if it contains everything Kirk's 4-CD archive does - perhaps not if it's copyrighted :(. --- David Malone <dwmalone@maths.tcd.ie> wrote: >On Sat, Mar 02, 2002 at 05:11:43AM -0800, sa-tmp wrote: >> If I were to buy a copy of the Ancient BSD sources CD set (costs $99), >> would anyone be interested in buying copies [CD-R versions] of the >> archive for, say $20? > >Are you're thinking of doing this with the CDs that Krik distributes? >If so, the compilation of the material is copyright so you'd have >to be quite careful not to violate that copyright. > > David. _____________________________________________________________ --- http://mail.secureroot.com/ - free mailbox for hackers and geeks _____________________________________________________________ You deserve a better email address!
