I'm assuming you meant to ask that as a question from the wording, the answer is yes, but see all 4 of those files for further clarification. One of them is in the regex-src subdir. >Please clarify the licensing information. It is what it says it is in the 4 copyright files. This is somewhat similar to the GPL, but in fact maybe even predates it since its first copyrighted in 1991. Use it as you please but do not remove or modify any of those copyright files. Modifications are up to the individual copyright holder, and there many, and all should be listed in the AUTHORS file. Useful patches that you may write and apply are expected to be given back to amanda in the same spirit as amanda was given to you. And don't forget to patch the AUTHORS file to add yourself, noteing what aspect your patch effects too. That way you are assured of your 15 minutes of fame in the grand scheme of things. :) >Thanks & Regards, >Silpakala -- Cheers, Gene People having trouble with vz bouncing email to me should add the word 'online' between the 'verizon', and the dot which bypasses vz's stupid bounce rules.
