ola,
you're totally right that we should get out of sourceforge,
that grants more rights to US citizens than to others.
we can find a domain in .fi, .de, .ch or .nl,
if you know what i mean.
so yeh you can remove unauthorized and pidip from sourceforge.
ciao,
sevy
pd _ and could you leave me in peace _forever_ ? thank you
