Wooa.  Cool down Mike.  I think everybody gets the point.  If a (C)copyright
notice is in the source, and a hacker does only a moderate rewrite as
opposed to a complete from-scratch rewrite or just extracting small 
subroutines for use in another program, that notice should be preserved.

Oh, another note on the workbench:  People should keep in mind that what
I'm suggesting (single file/folder rather than N files/folder) is simply an
internal change... I doubt any program running under my proposed "new" 
workbench would know or care unless it actually went through icon files 
manually.  That is, I intend to keep the workbench message format intact.
(Anybody out there know of any programs that wouldn't work??).

What some of you are proposing would require modifications to the workbench
message format, and that is simply impractical.
