Just for the record, my quick unscientific poll shows that the license consumes approximately 6.7M in the httpd-2.0 distribution. But I suspect that compresses well! ;-) Scientific method: LICENSE is 22998 bytes. The text of the license appears in 293 files, including the LICENSE file itself. -- Who can say where the road goes Where the day flows Only time --Pilgrim (Enya - A Day Without Rain) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
