Nick,
I guess part of my motovation for posting is to show respect for others.
When I was in Australia working on a community project, I got to the
point of feeling that others were taking my effort, benefiting from them
and not even acknowledging me or the rest of the community.
As always, I have a few other ideas I'm working on as well. I wanted to
gage peoples feelings rather than just taking peoples efforts for granted.
While this is a hobbyest list, it's also important to me to show respect.
Cheers Don

I suggest Don that you are taking the wrong approach. You cannot copyright
ideas, merely the expression of those ideas.
Take the ideas, throw them in the air and produce your own course. Don't
blindly copy stuff from the list, its not really set up as "courseware".
It needs reworking, at which time it will probably become your own work.
But if you want to know about anything useful I have posted, you can treat
it as having the same license as the clug wiki, although its probably more
likely to be in the public domain by virtue of being published on an open
mailing list with several public archives.
I'd like to see someone sue for breach of copyright for having work they
published on an open mailing list repeated. Slashdot would love it.

For the past few months you've all been offering up some really useful
content.
Some of your content will be very useful as class room material for LES..
What license do you suggest your list postings are covered under?
Is there anyone on list who would object to their content being used?
Comments please.
NOTE: Please keep your comments to you personally. I am not interested
in reading a flame war on "you can't publish Joe's work...". If 'Joe'
has a view then I'd like to hear from Joe.
Cheers Don
