Re: Does d6.0 have any definitions for TCP/IP Services

John, There appears to be some debate, in that explicit regulations for software copyright appeared in 1980, but some lawyers say 1976 is the relevant date. Dave ? ?

Subject: Re: [H390-MTS] Does d6.0 have any definitions for TCP/IP Services? Hmm, that means that perhaps *ASMH is free and clear, since I think the IBM product from which it was created predates 1980.?
As for things like Pascal (*PASCALVS) and Fortran 77 (*FTNVS), these may have been created after 1980.
I'm trying to find the reference that I mentioned in my original post, but haven't been able to find it. It mentioned that IBM let copyright expire on a "slew of old mainframe software products". This was about 4 months ago. I cannot find it anymore but will keep looking.
