Also, this very message may be illegal and subject you to crimial prosecution for conspiresy (sp?). (I'm not a lawyer, so I may be wrong, of course.) I certainly do hope that Lattice and/or Manx can get a search warrant to check you house/business now that you've publicly admitted that you would steal from them given the opportunity. I also hope that anybody who does NOT believe in piracy will keep a copy of this and look for Lattice-specific object code (like copyrights in the linked library code) in any code you may produce and will bring it to the attention of Lattice. You are a fool for even having posted this because the hardest thing in copyright infringement cases of this type is having probable-enough cause to sue in the first place. Of course, what I'm REALLY hoping is that somebody will be stupid enough to get caught UUENCODEing a compiler and mailing it to this idiot through public sites. I would suggest that somebody who knows how inform the postmaster or sysop or whatever at this dope's school and have his mail watched. (I'm no fan of big-brother, but publicly planning using the school's equipment to commit crimes seems like good cause to me.) Not only that, but he was stupid enough to not even put his home address in the first post so that further communication could be done without going through his school. On the other hand, maybe that was a good idea... at least physically dangerous things can't be mailed electronically. (I don't condone mailing them physically, either, but I know some who do.) PLEASE NOTE: THIS IS A FOLLOW-UP. DO NOT FLAME NEW@UDEL.EDU ABOUT PIRACY! (I would think this is obvious, but it has happened before) -- Darren
