Indeed it is. Might be milder to say "this might be a violation of the individual authors' copyrights." It all depends on what agreements are in place, etc. But it might be most productive here (especially since legal stuff gets awfully complicated, particularly internationally) to simply honor the contributors' expectations of how and to whom their work(s) would be published. > I'm asking the contributors here whether they > agree or not. ...and it looks like Anna is doing exactly that. If anyone who takes issue with having their stuff publicly distributed has a way to back out of the new distribution, then I think this all seems perfectly reasonable and fair to everyone. (Not to mention super-generous to we general public folk who haven't submitted diagrams - thanks for even considering offering these to everyone!) Anne LaVin
