Re: defvar'ing constants

[Richard M. Stallman]

      If there is
    interest in using this code, they are not yet assigned to the FSF, but
    at the present time they are 100% written by Ben Wing <address@hidden>
    as far as I know.  You might ask Ben to assign the code and avoid
    redundant work on this.

Experience says it isn't worth the effort to ask.  He would need
papers from Sun as well as signing them himself.
