Rita -

I just noticed. You commit a serious error in the
unixdraft.html document when you imply that the GNU
programs are Public Domain. You have lots of possible
phrases to choose from: Freeware, Publicly available,
Universal access sourceware, Non-commercial, etc. Very
little of the software you mention is Public Domain
(I think TeX might be an exception), and many people
bristle at the concept. Read the GNU General Public
License (especially the preamble) for an education.
It's on the web at
http://recycle.cebaf.gov/~doolitt/GPL_v2.txt

Thanks in advance for fixing the mistake.

- Larry
