And in that case the default is (by law and international treaty) that
distribution is strictly forbidden.

But that is not what you have written.

As things are now, I wouldn't dare to use your library for anything at
all.  I consider you much more trustworthy than ACT, but the copyright
notice in the files clearly prevents me from distributing your source
code (and maybe also compiled versions of it).

I know that the Beer-Ware license is twice as long as your text, but
please consider it, if you really want people to use your code.

Greetings,

Jacob
