The whole is copyright by P-H, and some of the parts are copyright by others (like an anthology of science fiction stories). The shell, in particular, was written by Charles Forsyth of the University of York (UK) and you need his permission to distribute it further. In any event, it is not PD. Andy Tanenbaum (ast@cs.vu.nl)
