It is not our fault if you think that everything mentioned somewhere in the POSIX/IEEE context defines the law and order for everyone. > What is present on every commercial UNIX system and it is present on > OpenSolaris.

Is that really hard to understand? Maybe in simple facts: Developers can retrieve the copyright information in cdrkit easily. Users can retrieve the copyright information in cdrkit easily. Have I forgotten someone? And why do you think that manpage talks about DEVELOPMENT, describing a tool for easier retrieval of various strings for DEVELOPERS? Developers can read the source if they need the copyright information. And if they really need to get it from binaries they can use "strings" to get it, a well known tool instead of some obscure "what(1)" tool distributed with an obsolete version management system developed 30 years ago. And why do you think that you have more rights than others? AFAICS you have added sccsid strings to various mkisofs/*.c files, but you do not mention all authors, actually nobody but yourself and sometimes James Pearson. This way you create a good demonstration of the insignificance of such hidden strings and the bug report has been closed correctly. EOD.
