This may start a debate. <sigh> In article <672@nicmad.UUCP> brown@nicmad.UUCP (Mr. Video) writes: > The CompuServe IBMPC SIG Users Group > ------------------------------------ > PATCHES FOR IBM DOS 3.1 > ----------------------- Posting this information violates the CompuServe copyright. CompuServe has explicitly reserved copyright to all information that you acquire on their system. In their current user agreements you are specifically enjoined from copying or retransmitting that information. They took this aggressive stand after users and sysops from competing services would "raid" the CompuServe SIG data libraries and make the files available on their systems. That doesn't mean I like it. And I can't decide what to do if I download something from CompuServe that states "Permission granted for distribution without profit ..." etc. CompuServe may not be the best place to distribute shareware.
