Interesting followup on Allchin's statement in Dan Gillmor's column in
the SJ Mercury News today
http://www0.mercurycenter.com/premium/business/docs/gillmor21.htm
Apparently Allchin was talking about government/university funded
programs being GPLed so they couldn't be enhanced commercially.  I'd
certainly object if my taxpayer dollars paid for something whose
copyright said "To use this, you must, once a day, salute and say
'George Bush is a genius'" (to pick an unlikely example).
