Right the first time :-). It's a pretty common acronym when discussing arcane subjects like licensing on open source lists, because nobody wants to have someone come back later and try to sue you for giving legal advice. Of course, for me it does evoke a small personal smile when *I* use this acronym, because my father is, in fact, a lawyer :-). Craig
