From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 Date: Thu, 17 Aug 1995 07:32:29 -0400 From: Vadim Antonov avg@postman.ncube.com Subject: fixes Topicbox-Message-UUID: 17ee98e0-eac8-11e9-9e20-41e7f4b1d025 Message-ID: <19950817113229._DjxjCdQqTic1wy-EvUyno8oOs6nIto6NCiABarQ9SE@z> >>From the legal point of view posting "old lines" in the diff and posting a single source file are identical, and both are covered by "fair use", as in both cases the "original bytes" are present and are useless without the rest of the system. Even *names of files* can be considered "violation", see also the text of USL's complaint against BSD Inc. Can somebody from Bell Labs explain their policy on posting fixes and additions in the public mailing lists? Just to put the discussion to the rest. --vadim
