Tipsters, on occasion I forward TIPS posts to students or others who might be
interested in the contents of the post.  Typically, I ask the author of the
post for permission to forward the material.  Lately, however, I was thinking
of routinely forwarding relevant posts to my students as all of my classes are
in an e-mail distribution list.  For example, Stephen Black's latest post on
myelin would make for interesting  supplementary reading material when this
topic is covered in class.  Before forwarding, I would, of course, ask for
Stephen's permission.  But, if I were to do this with many posts the process of
seeking permission would be a nightmare.  Then, I noticed the copyright
information (below) in David Wheeler's post and I began to wonder whether this
is something that TIPS might want to adopt as an informal policy.  There is
nothing in the TIPS  guidelines concerning the forwarding of messages.  So,
what do you all think?  Bill Southerly, what do you think?
