I read Rosen's article, and found it to be confusing and unconvincing. I
found DJB's respondse ( http://cr.yp.to/publicdomain.html ) to make much
more sense.

Software isn't litter, and there's no reason in common sense why one can't
just give code away. Where law strays from common sense, one must be
suspicious, but always realize that there are defective laws everywhere.

I'll continue to use tinydns, and not be spooked by Rosen.
