RE: on Licenses Second Link

["Schwartz, Judy" <Schwartzj@trocaire.edu>]

Fran and others - apparently UT has taken down the second link I 
mentioned below. When I truncated to 
http://www.utsystem.edu/ogc/intellectualproperty, I used their 
search box and input licensing as a term. 1700 hits were 
returned, and this one looks like it might fit: 
http://www.utsystem.edu/ogc/intellectualproperty/licrsrcs.htm.
