Yep, also this one-liner incorrectly says "use" where it should include copy/modify/redistribute. I think that technically this doesn't even grant the right to copy, only to "use". The fact that he mentioned code implies that this includes a source copy license, but we don't know for sure. This author should really be contacted and asked to X11 whatever this was. -drew -- M.
