Subject: Re: My BIOS for the Ithaca Intersystems 2A.

Reference exchanging ideas about what might belong in a BIOS...

I too am very interested, since I dearly love hacking about in my own
Morrow Decision I CBIOS&.

I understand the copyright problem (and agree with something like a BIOS),
but I wonder what the ethical (and maybe legal) line is on sending parts
of one to show how something is done, or to show the environment in whichd
a particular hack fits.  Like, if I invent a new wonderful I/O procedure,
or how to set parity or something -- can I show the "before" and "after"
without upsetting someone?

Anyone know the legal niceties about this?  Or a net opinion on the
ethics?  Would be glad to summarize.
