The draft NOSA implies that U.S. government works, though in the public domain in the U.S., are subject to copyright in other countries. Is this really true? The Berne Convention seems ambiguous on the case; it seems to me that it doesn't clearly foresee the case of works which are never in copyright in the country of origin.
The WTO countries are supposed to recognize US copyright, as the US is supposed to recognize the IP of the other WTO countries. Easier said then done, but it's there.
