Copyright and journals is entirely relevant to this Forum, whose topic is the freeing of the refereed research literature online. (I am not sure what made you think it was not relevant.) > And no lectures, thank you. Again, I am not sure what you mean here. I am the moderator of the Forum, but I am also a contributor. As contributor, I express my viewpoint, just as other contributors express theirs. Are you construing a differing viewpoint as a lecture? (Is that then reciprocal?) By way of clarification: There is a "fair use" issue for text book materials, for teaching purposes. That is royalty-based material, not author give-away, as refereed research is. That is why it is so important not to conflate the two. http://www.ecs.soton.ac.uk/~harnad/Tp/resolution.htm#1 http://www.ecs.soton.ac.uk/~harnad/Tp/resolution.htm#5 I would be interested to hear your viewpoint about that. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Stevan Harnad [email protected] Professor of Cognitive Science [email protected] Department of Electronics and phone: +44 23-80 592-582 Computer Science fax: +44 23-80 592-865 University of Southampton http://www.ecs.soton.ac.uk/~harnad/ Highfield, Southampton http://www.princeton.edu/~harnad/ SO17 1BJ UNITED KINGDOM
