[Complains about uploading a copyrighted volleyball game to a bbs]

Most freely redistributable software is copyrighted. A copyright does not
necessarily imply that an author has forbid redistribution.

I suspect that the game in question be examined for a freely redistributable
clause. If it's there, then it's copyable. If not, it's not.
