Hi Andy,

Public domain *does* exist in Europe - it contains all material that cannot be 
protected or which legal protection lapsed. The issue is whether it is legally 
possible for a copyright holder to dedicate voluntarily protected material to 
the public domain, where scholars diverge. 

My apologies if this pushes an open door :)

Kind regards,
