<WARNING> Do NOT take this seriously folks... but I was just reading an article on 'Hidden Gotchas on Web Sites' just the other day when I read Brandon's email. On the other hand, this is exactly what was being talked about in the article so there may be some foundation to it... Patrick ("Bring on the handcuffs Fred...") Powell </WARNING> Please note that by posting this information the to the LPRng mailing list, Mr. Allbery may have violated the terms of the Adobe 'Terms of Use' agreement (applicable part shown below). I fully expect the Dept. of Justice folks to show up on his doorstep tomorrow. Adobe is REALLY agressive in pursuing violators. Applicable Part: INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY; LIMITED LICENSE TO USERS The Materials and Services on this Site, as well as their selection and arrangement, are protected by copyright, trademark, patent, and/or other intellectual property laws, and any unauthorized use of the Materials or Services at this Site may violate such laws and the Terms of Use.

In addition, you agree not to use any data mining, robots, or similar data gathering and extraction methods in connection with the Site. Note that the applicable part is 'data mining', and perhaps while Mr. Allbery is not a robot (Ummm... CMU does have a Robotics group, so I will have to take this on faith.), he has clearly done 'data mining'. Don't you just love the stuff that is buried on these web sites? Patrick ("Non disclosure agreement says that I can't leave my brain to research cause it violates the terms of the data mining clause? Hmm... I think they have been reading too many SF novels while smoking those funny little brown cigars...")
