David Korn going to submit a slight variation on the ATT license you've already
seen, for a second ATT product. His version will:

	A. Require GPL-like source disclosure.

	OR

	B. Require that you offer service for the product similar to the
	   service you offer for other similar products.

Encouraging outside support of research software is a mandate for this
particular group's Open Source intellectual property. I think "A" is
going to be sufficient to get the support, given the nature of the product,
but "B" is an explicit acknowledgement of that goal.

	Thanks

	Bruce
