Dallas,
DH> When does that copyright expire? I'm not familiar with US copyright law.
Why should you care in Canada?
I say to just ignore it and do what needs to be done. Then see if someone in Portland OR really gives enough of a shit. Blame the international Coordinator, I've been sued before ...
The meaning of the copyright is to protect Fidonet and keep it available for "all", and that's a good thing. We've survived 28 years without Randy Bush.
Before I retired I was a manager at the phone company. I was not interested much why things don't work, but rather in what it took to make it work.
