Kent,

	I came onto this thread rather late, but I am writing a program
that uses some code from one of the TechNotes (it is a generic socket
listener) also from TechNote 18.  When done I wanted to release this 
program as shareware/freeware (I havent decided yet).  Am I to assume
I now cannot?  I am modifying the code for my purposes but you can only
write an event loop so many ways and so I used the TechNote code.  Do
I now have to re-write all of it or just give Apple credit (which I 
was going to do anyway)?

				Thanks for the information in advance,
						Johnathon
