Eleni,
Lucas Hildenbrand's book, Inherent Vice: Bootleg Histories of
Videotape and Copyright, cites an exchange on Frameworks regarding the
viewing of experimental films on video/DVD/online. Specifically, he
cites comments made by David Tetzlaff, Fred Camper, and myself
(possible others, but those are the ones I remember). Before the book
was published, Lucas contacted me to ask if it was alright with me to
be quoted in his book, and I assume he did the same for David and
Fred. I don't believe he was legally required to do this, as
Frameworks is indeed a public forum. Rather, he was doing it as a
professional courtesy, which I appreciated. Lucas also let me know
exactly which passages he would be citing - I'm sure we've all
occasionally written things on Frameworks that we later regret, or at
least wish we could modify.
So, instead of making a blanket request, I would contact the specific
people you want to quote and, as a courtesy (not a legal obligation)
let them know that you'd like to quote them.
Good luck,
Jonathan

Dear all,
I am writing my PhD on Gregory Markopoulos and many times I have
post in this forum questions about his work. Do I have your
permission to quote some passages from your answers in my thesis? I
intent to write fully reference about each of you. Thank you very
much.
Best,
Eleni
