I fully agree with you in principle. The 'restricted' idea is basically a convenience service for our users and distributors. OTOH our the current approach is to put our heads in the sand and pretend that we are too gutless to even distribute them in non-free. I therefore see the 'restricted' idea as a compromise which addresses at least some of the concerns that ftp-master *might* raise. However as they don't reply to my questions, I can only guess what the concerns might be. -- Gruesse/greetings, Reinhard Tartler, KeyID 945348A4 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
