But that's not true: "no licence at all" means that nobody has the right to use or copy or even *see* your work. You can, of course, choose to show them your work without a licence, but unless you give them a licence they can't legally do anything with it. Perhaps you are thinking of the public domain, which does not require a licence, but that is because it is not owned by anyone -- not even you, the creator. If you want to release your work with no restrictions whatsoever, then just put the work in the public domain. Is attribution really that important to you -- especially when that attribution may be buried deep in the source code of software which nobody will ever see? -- Steven. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
