[net.micro.amiga] Abusing public domain privileges

walker@sas.UUCP (Doug Walker) (11/04/86)

You may recall John Toebes' diatriabe in this newsgroup
about the policies of the PD CONNECTION and AMIGAWORLD 
with respect to PD Connection's distribution of HACK
for money.  John protested the idea of someone else making
money on his work when he isn't even making money on it.

Well, last night someone from the PD Connection called John
and asked him to advise the net that they will NO LONGER
DISTRIBUTE HACK.  This is apparently due to pressure from 
concerned netters.  John left this morning for the Amiga
Developer's conference in California, so I am posting this
message for him.

Thanks to everyone who supported us in this.  This really
renews my faith in public domain software users.
