You do it, please. I have too much to lose. I'd be happy to see you (or anyone else) establish a secondary distribution site for patent-infringing software. > the bin86 package is "for personal use only" (or some such). You've got a point. I think I might have to remove it from my CD if Evans won't give me a license. This is problematic, since you then won't be able to build the kernel, but I _REFUSE_ to distribute software that I don't have a clear and explicit right to distribute.
