Then I suggest that you look towards your own organization.  The
software that BRL distributes has an erroneous COPYRIGHT notice
and smoke screen on it.  The U.S. Government can not hold a copyright
on anything.  Moreover, trying to maintain a proprietary to BRL status
on this published code is probably not enforceable provided that the
code is not of a defense sensitive nature that should have precluded
any distribution to begin with.
