Page 1 of DECCS T-Shirt

Hello,

Following on from this new story, I remember reading on The Register a few months ago when the DECCS trial first kicked off that the defence actually submitted the source code of the application as evidence in the case. This puts it into the public domain, from where it can`t be removed, the story said. This obviously means that anyone could (if they so desired) get this piece of code from the legal history books, and then compile it and run it, making the prosecutions case a little pointless.

Can anyone confirm that this did happen, and it`s not just my imagination, and whether this would work anyway?

Ta,

Mark J.
