A true friend is one who will tell you the truth when you need to hear
it even if you don't want to.
I have made many friends on newsgroups and my life has been greatly
enriched by them. I have learned a lot, and I have heard a lot of
things that I really didn't want to hear at the time (thank you, Joanne,
among others on other newsgroups!) among other people) that didn't
"click" until later and I was glad that someone told me something that I
needed to hear even though at the time I was not ready to hear it.

That's not what I meant, I think everyone's been friendly in pointing
out something you didn't realize. I only meant that putting this offer
out in public isn't a good idea.

Generally, copyright law makes no differentiation between commercial
products given away and those sold, as in either case the intellectual
property owner is deprived of a possible sale if the person had
purchased the item rather than gotten a pirated copy.
And it is illegal whether you get a cease and desist request or not, if
that matters to you, but given what you said, maybe it doesn't matter.

Hi Mirjam,
Thanks for the heads up. I will no longer send the patterns out to anyone.
I apologize to you if I seemed a liittle snippy, but I've honestly had no
idea it was illegal.
Thanks again for the caution.
