As I said in another post, Magnus's copyright notice (at the URL
above) says this:

  "The "Ada 95 HTML-Hypertext Reference Manual," hereafter referred
   to as the "package", is distributed in the hope that it will be
   useful, but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty
   of MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. 

   This package may be freely copied and distributed, if accompanied
   by this statement, and provided that integral copies of all files
   are included (i.e. no change whatsoever is allowed). You are asked
   to help keep the hypertext annotations consistent, identical
   everywhere in the world. If you think something needs to be
   modified, tell me what and why (see my e-mail address below)."

It sounds like your version says something different -- is that so??
The copy I have doesn't seem to say anything about not putting it on
a website...
