Interesting, I never heard about this kind of piracy here in Czech. It seems that the whole piracy problem here is oriented on already released commercial software. We have no problems with piracy of source codes. This is something really new for me. Here in Czech, I can tell to other programmer "I am working on very interesting thing ….". Maybe he ask me, if I will give him one copy free of charge, as soon as my work will be finished, but he will never try to steal my source. I am really shocked and I am starting to understand your fear of piracy. PavelK
