GRC (Gibson Research, home of Shields Up!) has issued a new 3.0.11
version of Gravity. Among other things, it fixes the bug where quoted
lines are broken if they happen to be longer than your preferred line
length.
But what is all that talk on the page about it having its own news server?

The only connection is that Steve Gibson,
who owns GRC, likes Gravity and started maintaining it after the
previous maintainer stopped.

Is that legal?

Hi, i have used Gravity in the past.
It's a good news that there is a new maintener for it.
Does the source of this newsreader remain in public domain
for the new binary version you will publish ?
A note for Gravity users who may not be aware of this:(*)

(*) If this is old news to you, I apologize. I found out about it
only by accident last weekend: I was searching for something else but
this came up in the results. For years I'd been cursing that
particular bug in 3.0.4 but didn't know anyone was still working om
Gravity.
