The reply is incorrect on one significant point: the IBM system is NOT in the
public domain. However, it is free for non-commercial use, hence for
university folks there's probably no difference. One implicitly assents to the
included license agreement by using the software. I'm sure Joxan will be happy
to send you a copy of the agreement in advance if you want to make sure it's
OK.
