I was also outraged when I got that letter.  Mr. Weiner's survey was part
of a series of postings by him that discussed convincing his management to
release the sources to the outside.  I don't remember if my survey reply
bounced -- I generally have trouble reaching the UUCP site "novavax".

What By Design Technology are doing may be legal, but it is sooo scummy.
They saved a ton of time by using GNU Emacs as the infrastructure of their
package.  The prices they charge are not high for such a product, but they
are charging them PER COPY.  GNU code is certainly not created for that
kind of activity.
