	Fine for newsletters, conference. But not tapes. As long as
they contain GNU software, UKUUG have no right to prevent the copy
of part of their content.
	As all the tapes contain data more or less
public-domain/freeware/shareware, the policy of UKUUG is
questionnable. Are they trying to get more members or do they want
to make the public-domain/freeware/shareware more available ?
