Due to the fact that the list is a public transmittal medium, wouldnt just
sending a message without a liscense attached at the top make it so the code
could be modified without need of a liscense?

Also, if I wanted to get a copyright on say... certain modifications to
circle that I made. Lets say for example that I made a piece of code which
allows mobiles to become major AI factors. If all the code for this was in a
seperate file, couldnt I regester the copyright for this file/section of code
without violating the Circle/DikuMUD liscense or the copyright already placed
on CircleMUD?
