This is one of the reasons why I believe that the current copyright system (where the copyright term is determined by the date of author's death) is flawed. It results in a situation where certain works belonging to the same historical period may have insanely different copyright terms. -- Юрко Булка | Yury Bulka | gpg: 36DD 7515 B47D E2C9 9057 D440 D834 635C A947 0CA2 _______________________________________________ Wikimedia-l mailing list, guidelines at: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Mailing_lists/Guidelines New messages to: Wikimedia-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimedia-l, <mailto:wikimedia-l-requ...@lists.wikimedia.org?subject=unsubscribe>
