I find this whole discussion rather offensive. Indeed, this whole newsgroup
should not exist if one is going to construe things narrowly. (Our department
owns not one ST, and I doubt that it will ever buy one. Most members of the
net are in the same position.)

Asking someone to E-mail some public domain code is, as far as I'm concerned,
a reasonable use of the net. (It might be even better to ask for the code
to be posted.) Any ST-related stuff of a non-commercial nature ought to 
be grist for net.micro.atari16's mill.

For Tramiel's sake, let's get back to some sensible discussion!
