Did I misread the original post in which the author wrote:
>  The program is called "SPAudit for the Macintosh" and it will be free
>  from the Software Publishers Association (SPA).

So why does Mr Johnston say:
>  Fred buys SPAudit and a few weeks later everybody gets a memo 
>  from Fred's boss announcing that from now on the "approved" 
>  software list will be enforced;

And then Mario Herodotus writes:
>  If he was really concerned about piracy he'd release it as public
>  domain.
