Will do.  But I have to ask you this about=20
strinet.  I got that from you.  So are you=20
distributing GPL code without a copy of the GPL=20
as a sort of time bomb?  That is, if strinet=20
lacks a copy of the GPL it is because you failed=20
to distribute it that way in the first place.  So=20
why should that affect my, or anyone's, rights to redistribute that package?
