[Asterisk-Dev] code theft again?

[Josh Roberson]

Actually, there are two disclaimers.

One of them gives Digium the copyright.

The other gives Digium full USAGE rights, and you retain copyright of your

A lot of us signed the long form (usage rights), therefore have the right to
take up our own legal action against copyright violators.
