Message-ID: <139@dmsd.UUCP> Date: Mon, 3-Sep-84 07:16:00 EDT Article-I.D.: dmsd.139 Posted: Mon Sep 3 07:16:00 1984 Date-Received: Thu, 13-Sep-84 05:35:42 EDT References: <836@ihuxx.UUCP> <506@wjh12.UUCP> Lines: 19 My understanding of the AT&T stand on binary licenses is that EVERY provider of binaries to a single system must pay the proper license fee... IE: Vendor 1 provides UNIX kernel and basic set of utilities pays first royalty fee. Vendor 2 provides C, F77, assembler, ld, and vi pays second fee. Vendor 3 provides UUCP pays third fee. A source site which provides binaries without a binary sublicense agreement and payment of fees is in violation of their license. Please correct me if I'm wrong ... this is the example I used at a USENIX meeting several years back in questions to a WeCo speaker ... their statement of multiple fees was clear ... of course things do change for the better every once and a while ...
