in thread Copyright notice on DBDs

This == What?

What I really meant was does anyone know if Tim has given this permission in the past or does he not want to grant commerical distribution on CD media (as is entirely his right)?

I have attempted to contact Tim periodically over the last 18 months at the pobox.com address but without response. As you suggest, I have offered him a fee, royalities, an ongoing donation to the foundation but haven't heard anything back.

I would be grateful if anyone knew another way to contact Tim as I do not want to do anything that he would view as a breech of his copyright.

    Ask on the DBI users mailing list. I know for a fact that Tim Bunce follows that mailing list, as well as at least a few other DBD developers.

    You have a higher chance of a respose, as these people generally prefer to reply in a public forum, where they feel their reply also serves a broader public, instead of just the private you.
