Well, the polite fellow who answered 800-828-UNIX this morning (well, MY 
morning, his afternoon) said there was something called "Basic Net Utilities"
that included an enhanced uucp, ct and cu.  I guess this is the long-awaited
honey danber.  I am going to get a "nifty glossy brochure" soon.

My best information is that it costs $5000 for the first CPU and $1000 for each
subsequent CPU.  The $5K bucks includes source.  An option if you are an OEM 
is to sublicense it for a one-time $1000 fee and $250 per CPU.

THis is all I know about the legal, licensing and money hassles, so
please don't ask me any questions.  YOU can call 800-828-UNIX too....

Meanwhile I'm waiting for June, a new fiscal year and a renewed engineering
budget...
