Small correction.  Public Folder isn't in the public domain, rather it's
Freeware.  Claris retains the Copyright to Public Folder, but make
it available to anyone who wants it for free.  (I always thought of
it as AdWare.  Every time you use it you see a big Claris logo and
are expected to thank mother Claris for her generosity :-)
