Just to clarify the templates question. These converted SO 5.2 templates were 
first included in the 1.1 series CD I created. I have tried several times to 
contact the owners of the copyright (they are actually a joint copyright, Sun 
and Template Zone). I have sent several emails to TZ (who IIRC actually 
either bought the original owner or was bought by another company), and have 
never received even an acknowledgement that my request to use the templates 
had been received. This is still the situation, even after several years.

I did consider sending an email, asking for permission and stating that, if no 
response was received within a set period (probably about three months) that 
such lack of response would be taken as consent for the templates to be used. 
I might still do that, although I'd like some advice as to the legality of 
such an approach.

The templates in question are still included on the ISO image. Of course, any 
distributor is free to remove any or all of the templates should they 
consider that necessary.
