[net.sources] copyright status of dynamic loading code

kempf@hplabsc.UUCP (Jim Kempf) (02/01/85)

Does anyone out there know what the copyright status of the dynamic loading
code is that was posted to net.sources last July? I am writing a book
on system programming techniques for numerical people and would like
to include it in an appendix as one way to make numerical code
independent of the problem model. I could not find an author name or
copyright notice in the code. Many thanks in advance!!!

As poster of this horrible thing,  I make the following statements.
1.  The code was developed after study of the Franz Lisp routines.
	These are marked "Copyright Regents ....Berkeley".
2.  The code fragments were used as a guide, and generated from scratch..
	uh,,, I mean keyboard.
3.  As far as I am concerned, if anybody wants to claim this execrable hack
	as their own, far be it from me to stop them.  Berkeley might
	object though.
