- Followup-To: poster
- Approved: rsalz@uunet.UU.NET
-
- Submitted-by: rsalz
- Posting-number: Volume 17, Info 4
- Archive-name: mod-copyright
-
- I have been told by someone who could be correct that as moderator I have
- an implicit copyright on the "compilation" known as comp.sources.unix.
- Please note that I renounce, foreswear, and forever disclaim any such
- copyright.
-
- From the beginning, the intent of comp.sources.unix (formerly mod.sources)
- has been the wide dissemination of source code to the programming community.
- Readers of this group, through Usenet or any other means, are encouraged
- to use the code they find here and distribute it with similar intent.
- If you want to make a copy of the archives and sell them for $20,000,
- feel free.
-
- Please note that this renunciation does not invalidate the copyright that
- individual authors may have placed on their submissions.
