> Edmund Grimley Evans YES That YES should be attributed to Thomas Bushnell rather than me. I don't think it's free, though the licence seems to allow anyone to automatically generate a file that contains the same information and then release the new file under a licence of their choice, which is what the FSF are going to do, according to a recent message in this thread. If possible, it would be helpful to distribute together with the new file a script that converts the new file into a file that is (almost) identical to the original file, thus allowing people to check that the conversion was lossless. Also, if you can't be bothered to patch a program that uses the original file to use the new file instead, just pipe the input through the converter ... Edmund
