I didn't "skip over it"; I'm taking the following "this means" as an explanation of the intent of that sentence. If the license says "foo means bar", I will interpret foo as meaning bar, and try not to bring my own wishful meanings to it. > > Doesn't grant rights to modify and redistribute, so these remain > > reserved to the copyright holder.

I disagree; I think the license has told us what it means by that first part, and its stated meaning does *not* include the rights of redistribution and deriving modified works. -- \ “Pinky, are you pondering what I'm pondering?” “I think so, | `\ Brain, but culottes have a tendency to ride up so.” —_Pinky and | _o__) The Brain_ | Ben Finney -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
