   redhat customizes many of the software that they include in their =
product.  They include redhat branding and make other changes as they = see
fit.  I have no idea whether they customize gaim but even if they = did
Adam needs to look to see if there is a copyright notice on redhat = linux
and not some independent release of gaim that has nothing to do = with the
one for which redhat took responsibility because it was = included with
redhat's product.  redhat does include a copyright notice = in its product
and it shouuld apply to everything in its product.
