[RN copyright...] You may copy this program so long as you don't try to make money off of it... Brad is not distributing rn itself; rather, he is only distributing some sort of library which may be linked against it, or which may be run standalone without rn. (Check for yourself; I just re-read the comp.newprod articles very very carefully to be sure.) QED: Brad is not making money off of rn itself; the users who read clari.* may be using it, but they are *spending* money, and they are free to use any news-reading interface they wish. --Karl
