- Richard Stevens passed away before the third edition of
- UNIX Network Programming, Volume 1 was published, but the
- new authors, Bill Fenner and Andy Rudoff, have tried to carry
- forward his intentions. Mr. Stevens didn't include an explicit
- LICENSE file in his original source tree, however some files
- contained the following license text:

- Some additional comments from his web site:
- [Richard Stevens wrote...]
- The code is available to anyone on the Internet and should
- compile easily on most current Unix systems. The majority of
- the 10,000 lines of C code are functions that one can use as
- building blocks (a network programming toolchest) inside their
- own network applications. Many of these functions help hide
- the differences between IPv4 and IPv6, and can aid the reader
- in developing protocol-independent code.
