[comp.sys.next] Copyright of code fragments in NeXT Users' Journal

youki@newmars.ics.osaka-u.ac.jp (Youki Kadobayashi) (04/09/91)

Hello netters,

I'm posting this query because I got no response from Ms. Erica J
Liebman, the editor-in-chief of NUJ, though more than one week have
elapsed. Perhaps she's moved to somewhere net-less, or still in spring
break, or the mail has been lost on the way to gatech..

I've created some sort of visual oriented shell for NeXT; I want to
put it on some archive and distribute it under the terms of GNU
General Public License. But the problem is I borrowed some code from
an article of NeXT Users' Journal. I'm not sure if I can distribute it
as GPL licensed one. Is it okay to do so?

Thanks in advance,
