WB discussion and war

[Erik Quackenbush]

At the risk of prolonging this discussion I'd like to point out a problem I 
noticed. The 'usage' file that accompanies the DIY WB files contains this 
phrase:

"It is in the public domain"

I am not a lawyer but I do know that once you place something in the public 
domain NOBODY owns it and nobody can restrict other people's use. No matter 
what the rest of the document says you can't steal something that's free.

If you're worried about misuse then you must retain the copyright or use a 
licensing agreement that will stand up.

-Erik
