: Oh dear!  So I am incorrect... but wait, what about people like
: sunsite northern europe (Imperial College London: ftp.doc.ic.ac.uk)
: who already have a license to be a Netscape mirror site.  Would this
: license allow them to distribute this latest 128 bit netscape beta
: (were it to leak)?

I would like to know what Netscape's position on the above mentioned
scenario is .. (Uploading "possibly" received 128 bit binaries to
official netscape mirrors outside the US, that is) (guess why ...)
