HP is willing to cut a copy for me if I can get 'permission' from the author.
If it is a legal copy, it will come with a statement of that permission and a file called Copying, which gives details of that permission, i.e. the GPL licence text. If it doesn't contain these and has been distributed outside of the source organisation, it is in breach of the GPL terms. In theory, each source file should contain a copyright statement identifying the copyright owners for that file (for Lynx, the contributors of copyrightable content). In practice people tend to be a bit lax in that respect.

RFC1855 says there should be an address here, but, in a world of spam, that is no longer good advice, as archive address hiding may not work. _______________________________________________ Lynx-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lynx-dev
