Re: Fwd: DAML+OIL W3C Note

Jim,

We agreed on Tuesday that we would all be happy for daml+oil to be in
the public domain and not copyrighted by anyone - in particular not
copyrighted by a publisher or some such. If this isn't possible then I
suppose we, or some suitable subset of us, should copyright it as you
have suggested.
