AT&T lawyer stopped Plan 9 release CD with songs by Lou Reed, Debbie Harry
When I developed the first native C++ compiler around 1987, I thought I&#x27;d better check with AT&amp;T&#x27;s lawyers if I could:<p>1. sell a C++ compiler<p>2. call it C++<p>Their lawyer was very nice, and said sure. He also laughed and said he appreciated that I was the only one who bothered to ask.
