    You don’t have to release something to have it be public domain. The NCSA is a state-federal partnership, to which the law about government non-copyright applies.

      I’m not sure where you’re getting your information.

      I work there, have worked there for nearly three decades, and I can tell you that it’s not the case.

      (Also, it’s just NCSA for trademark reasons, without ‘the’ in front)
