Depends on what Mike finds in the UofU sources -- the UofU wrote most of the PA code, not OSF. So while OSF may have slapped a copyright on it when they picked it up and modified it, there may well be versions in the UofU tree that are not encumbered by the OSF license and are copyrighted by the UofU only. This is something I've been meaning to bright up with folks at the UofU, but keep forgetting when I'm up there. Mike's probably in a better position to do it anyway since he's still with the UofU. jeff
