When they set up this 'free' access to the documents it was rather
a change of direction for (what was then) X/Open.  After all they
had a business model that assumed they would be making money from
selling the books, rather than just taking money from the contributing
companies and giving away a 'free' copy of each book to each company.

In any case they wanted a log of who was downloading stuff, but they
said at the time that the email addresses wouldn't be used for other
purposes.  I've certainly never received junk mail from them.

I suspect the log (like the ones from anon ftp passwords) is of
little use to anyone.
