Probably. In the US, this doesn't apply. In the UK... it probably does, but there isn't much recent caselaw AIUI and if someone took it to court it could potentially go either way. I'd bet on the court ruling for them retaining the rights, though. -- - Andrew Gray [email protected] _______________________________________________ Wikimedia UK mailing list [email protected] http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_UK http://mail.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediauk-l
