Get in touch with Christian Mondrup. I built my own site instead. The University should supply you with space, but perhaps they want a piece of you? Most of the fuss and feathers could be eliminated by not allowing corporations to hold copyrights. The U. S. government is not allowed copyrights, so why should corporations be allowed them? They don't create art, they merely exploit it. Authors today become publishers also, to get a bigger piece of the pie. There is a new possibility, which is to allow the uploading of your stuff to youtube and receive a healthy cut of the advertising revenue clicks of viewers. The players get nothing, of course. Contact youtube about the agreement. Open software people tend to consider artists as being equivalent to programmers, so they think artists should starve. I have no sympathy with that view. Obviously. Knowledge should be free, Yale to the contrary. Art shouldn't be free until the artist gets his. Or hers.
