re:Re: copyrighted standards documents

Tony,

Excellent post!

One addt'l point regarding your point below:

Recent Case law has resulted in the removal of the need for
an "explicit copyright statement". Copyright, in MOST, or ALL cases
IS ASSUMED, regardless of whether the "public" has been "notified" by
a copyright symbol or statement.

>Even if a document does not have an explicit copyright statement
>attached to it, the document may still be regarded by the law as the
>intellectual property of the author, and it therefore cannot be
>reproduced etc. without the permission of the author.

Hope this helps.
