Andrew,
Fixed. Please refresh your cached copy of
http://www.unicode.org/copyright.html
For others who have been following this discussion, I'd like to make it
clear that
the Unicode terms of use have *never* been intended to be construed as
legally
disallowing people from viewing or downloading any publicly available
content
of the Unicode website or the various standards specifications and other
documents
posted there.
The "for informational purposes" part of the Unicode terms of use is
intended
to discourage anyone from engaging in commercial resale of the
content of the Unicode website or its standards, misrepresenting themselves
either as the Unicode Consortium or as somehow licensed by the Unicode
Consortium to do so, etc.
The "in the creation of products supporting the Unicode Standard" part of
the Unicode terms of use is intended to *permit* free use of the data and
specifications in the development of products, but to discourage
attempts to use the data in nonconformant or otherwise misleading
implementations that would undermine the intended open interoperability
of the Unicode Standard for all.
Clear?
--Ken Whistler, Technical Director, Unicode, Inc.
