O.K. That applies to original work, correct? What about traditional or folk songs that are first collected and then published, for example Stan Hugill's collections of Sea Shanties? Would it be legal to exchange individual tunes transcribed from a text, with bibliographical info included with the tune? The entire collection of tunes from a specific text transcribed and put into a single abc file would be a violation. The book or collection is the protected work, the tunes themselves are public domain? -tglaab To subscribe/unsubscribe, point your browser to: http://www.tullochgorm.com/lists.html
