Hi Reg,

  I believe he was referring to Wizardworks practice of downloading other
peoples maps, sticking them on a CD and *selling* them without so much as a
'please' or 'thank you' to the original authors. It was because of this
practice that many map authors (including myself) began adding 'not for
profit' clauses in our map text.
