I am surprised to hear this from you. Wikipedia footer clearly says "Text is available under the Creative Commons Attribution/Share-Alike License; additional terms may apply. See Terms of Use for details." The terms of use clearly state you can redribute text as logn as you mention the list of authors or the URL of the article. Now every browser available in market today is capable of printing the source URL on the top of the page when you take a printout. So, no copyright infringement if you turn on that feature. regards Vivek -- The hidden harmony is better than the obvious!! _______________________________________________ network mailing list [email protected] http://lists.fosscom.in/listinfo.cgi/network-fosscom.in
