I would suggest distribution is implicit in subscribing and managing one's preferences on the subscription page. >how about all those servers it passed through from your >computer to SHSU and then back out to all of us who receive the list? This is covered in the US copyright law section 512b, "System Caching". >Then how about permission for us to quote the message -- I don't see any >written permission for me to do that. This is also implicit in subscribing, but probably already covered in section 107, "Fair use". Worth actually reading the US law, plus the attached notes: http://www4.law.cornell.edu/uscode/html/uscode17/usc_sup_01_17.html US law is slowly being harmonized with international treaties. As for the opensubscriber.com owner, we've already exchanged several long emails. In the last email, I wrote, "There is no group consensus on removing the Finale list from your servers, so all I will personally ask for now is that you begin work on a script to remove individual posters' intellectual property upon their request. Please file this as a formal notice of infringement." Dennis _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list [email protected] http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
