UWash was going to sue the FSF for infringment of an BSD-style license when it's plainly obvious that no infringement was taking place? Oh, I remember this. The sophists at UWash claim that: "Permission to use, copy, modify, and distribute this software and its documentation for any purpose and without fee to the University of Washington is hereby granted," does not mean that you can modify and then distribute. http://lists.debian.org/debian-legal/2000/debian-legal-200009/msg00001.html It is this sort of stupidity that degrades the legal profession. -- G.
