If I'm reading this correctly (though out of context, of course), it also means that we're not only no longer able to use drawterm, but we're also unable to use it with VMWare (or VNC from anything other than Plan 9). I'm also guessing that we're not allowed to use the mail or DNS servers to support other OSes, which poses a huge problem. Hell, I accessed the wiki this afternoon using Mozilla; I think that violates the license at least four times (DNS and httpd with other OS and other application). When will the lawyers call? -Jack
