  34 <PRE>Hi there Andy and Andrew,
  35
  36 I've just been taking a look at &quot;Rush Services&quot; which someone from Israel
  37 DCC send'ed to me:
  38
  39 messages.c
  40
  41 from within:
  42
  43 static void m_motd(char *source, int ac, char **av)
  44
  45 --- start snip ---
  46
  47     send_cmd(ServerName, &quot;372 %s :-&quot;, source);
  48     send_cmd(ServerName, &quot;372 %s :- Rush Services is copyright (c) &quot;
  49                 &quot;1999 Extreme Rush &amp; Wired Rave Software.&quot;, source);
  50     send_cmd(ServerName, &quot;376 %s :End of /MOTD command.&quot;, source);
  51
  52 --- end snip ---
  53
  54 Very few changes have been made execpt for adding:
  55
  56  * Customized by Extreme Rush. - (c) 1999 Sirius
  57  * Additional work by Wired Rave Software.  <A HREF="http://www.wiredrave.com/">http://www.wiredrave.com/</A>
  58  * This program is free but copyrighted software; see the file COPYING for
  59  * details.
  60  */
  61
  62 Its working off the ver 4.2 and has added some code from later vers 4.3.x
  63 of EsperNet IRC Network Services.
  64
  65 --- From the README file ---
  66
  67 Rush Services 5.0
  68
  69  .. ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...
  70 :<i>
  71 </I>:<i>  Rush Serivces 5.0x is copyright (c) 1999 Extreme Rush and Wired Rave

  79 </I> .. ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...

  81 Then only do they include the usual README file.
  82
  83 I think a extra file must/should be added about this type of thing
  84 stating:
  85
  86  * You have the following rights:
  87    * To modify your copy of the source.
  88    * Release your own patches for the software.
  89
  90 etc.
  91
  92  * You may not do any of the following:
  93    * Redistribute this software as being your own work,
  94      as it is the work of Andy Church, and many others,
  95      who have volunteered to it.
  96    * Sell this software.
  97
  98 Just my R 0.02 worth :)  Please boycott the usage of rush services until
  99 the services copyright stuff is put back into place (this starts to remind
 100 me of what happened with Magick).
