Thanks.  Once again that helped me get context I struggled to find in
the ccREL Submission.  To be sure, when I asked above for clarification,
I didn't mean that you figure out software rules for international
copyright and trademark law, just that you clarify what the spec allows,
requires, forbids and/or anticipates, so that practitioners have the
context they need to make wise choices.

thanks again,
Matt
