This is a very good point. Dennis has already made generally available
for free a whole cartload of his work (musical and verbal) while
retaining his copyright, on his various websites. No doubt he considers
his writings here to be similar.
I, on the other hand, have freely given away a bunch of my writings in
the public domain, which is a different kettle of fish. But just
because <I> don't care who re-distributes MY work doesn't mean that I
don't support Dennis' point of view.
Point made, I think.
