Perhaps. Or perhaps, as the sender told me in an email after I explained the distributed & non-commercial nature of Debian in a gentler way, he simply thought our offices were in California. Wonder what could've led to such a silly belief... Registrant: Software in the Public Interest, Inc. (DEBIAN6-DOM) PO Box 273 Tracy, CA 95378-0273 US Domain Name: DEBIAN.ORG Hmm. :) I hate spam. I hate spammers. And I probably think that this company's software is crap, and it probably has a standard closed EULA clickthru-type license. But I think we may be jumping to conclusions about this guy's intentions... -- Mike Markley <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> PGP: 0xA9592D4D 62 A7 11 E2 23 AD 4F 57 27 05 1A 76 56 92 D5 F6 GPG: 0x3B047084 7FC7 0DC0 EF31 DF83 7313 FE2B 77A8 F36A 3B04 7084 You can't have everything... where would you put it? - Steven Wright
