Regarding OSS as not public domain: If it weren't for Gates and M$ being so twisted up with the scorched earth embrace and extend business practice, guys like Linus Torvolds wouldn't NEED to seek Copyright protection. It's all largely protection from being userped, embraced and extended by Microsoft! Look at the extraordinary lengths Sun had to go to to protect Java. Look what M$ just attempted with Kerberos. --- If Microsoft were a country, there'd be no folk music. -JCJ
