Workbench distribution

Hi.

I found that Workbench 1.3, 2.1, 3.0 is available on Ten on Ten CD 4 on back2roots(http://team.back2roots.org/CDs/Demos/), as i know Workbench is still copyrighted, and back2roots is a legal site for Amiga downloads. So basically, it should be legal made a custom version of Workbench using these WB versions of Ten on Ten to distribute free?

Definitely not. BTTR asked for permission to distribute for every single package on their site. This is an exclusive permission for BTTR, it does not apply to anyone else. You are allowed to download the packages for free from their site, but you are not allowed to upload them anywhere else. Removing parts of a package and distributing the rest is an even worse violation of the rights.

Ok, i'm understand that, but i think that back2roots didn't ask permission to Amiga Inc, only  to Ten on Ten CD's makers, the questions is, then Ten on Ten CD makers has permision to distribute workbench? I think that it is really a messy situation.
