Yet again: public domain == no restrictions distribution not for profit != public domain By at once stating that the binaries are in the public domain and are for non-profit distribution you have (depending on your point of view) either invalidated your copyright or made it impossible for anyone who cares about such things to use your code. Please, please lets stop this pointless self-contradiction. Dan Lanciani ddl@harvard.*
