I'm quite surprised that they are not claiming copyright under US law, but yet claim copyright under other jurisdictions (if I understood correctly). Traditionaly, software developed by the US government has had no copyright (i.e. public domain). It is strange to see an outfit cliam it only in other jurisdictions. Seems to go against the principle. Peter -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
