Does this remind anyone else of the word 'discrimination' ? I am not sure, but I think that you can't say 'public domain' and 'this and that cannot use the code'.

But I'm off on a tangent here. -giorgos To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
