    FYI, when we ran a pilot using MOO in the corporate world, our cadre of
    software and internet lawyers spent quite some time pouring over the
    information available about the core, the code, etc...  And their answer to us
    was -- we can use it.

    I'm not sure whether that meant that my Firm, exclusively, could use it... or
    that anyone could use it.  So, take this with a grain of salt, I'm not sure
    what kind of agreements or legal contracts were drawn, I only know they fixed
    it so that we didn't have to worry.  As far as I know, anyone can use MOO for
    whatever purpose they choose at the current time.
