That's a big oops, but not "the same as usual".  You see, there was an
alias from LeViMS@lp.se to free-vms@lp.se at one place (in MX)...  I had 
forgotten that, and since people nowadays refer to ME as LeViMS@lp.se
rather than to Free-VMS, I added an alias from LeViMS to levitte at
another place (in VMS MAIL)...  Since the old alias was processed before
the new one, the subscription above was CC:'d to this list rather than
directly to me.

I have now removed the old alias, so the "trafik" list won't be bombarded
with bounces...

Subject: Free Hobbyist OpenVMS Vax 6.1 license

 Has everyone heard about the free hobbyist license for 
OpenVMS VAX 6.1?  Any comments?  If you haven't heard,
check out the info-VAX mailing list or comp.os.vms. The
announcement was just yesterday...

I have now :-).  See http://www.montagar.com/hobbyist/ for more
information.

A few details:

* Non-commercial use only.

* No source code.

* Does not include VMS 7.x, just 6.1 and some other older versions.

The hobbyist license isn't a bad thing, but it is well short of what
we have been hoping to accomplish with Free-VMS.  On the other hand,
it exists and Free-VMS is vapor...

I can't find anything on it on the comp.os.vms newsgroup. Are you sure about
it? Do you have a reference or contact for somebody to call at Digital?

One more "minor" detail:  you have to be a member of US DECUS.

This would appear to preclude non-USofA people, which is rather,
ahem, unfortunate.

I agree, but perhaps Digital will also make this license
available to members of other DECUS chapters. Hopefully
Digital's horizon is not limited to the border of the
United States ...

There are some more Europeans on this list.
Does anybody know about non-US DECUS activities
concerning the hobbyist license?

Sorry - now I have got off-topic, this list is
Free-VMS.
