I ditribute some things as "sourceware," meaning that there is no fee even requested for the executables, but the source is sold for a modest fee. Rather than try to decide if this is legitimate or not, I have just not posted it, since there are commercial "pay before you try" packages to do most of the same things. I will continue to post things like bpe, etc, for which no fees are asked. -- bill davidsen (wedu@crd.GE.COM) {uunet | philabs}!steinmetz!crdos1!davidsen "Stupidity, like virtue, is its own reward" -me
