I think your interpretation of the text is contrived to try to make it true, and I don't think it's a natural interpretation. But I'm ambivalent to calling that non-free, which is why I'm not spending our time trying to come to agreement about that. Actually, just the inclusion of a URL has problems: domains are lost and links are broken, and this text--and tons of others--may well be untrue ten years from now, when the link breaks and nobody is permitted to fix it. That might even cost people money, when bugs are filed for a commercial product forced to include a dead link. But there are bigger licensing problems in the world, and limited time to fight for them ... -- Glenn Maynard -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
