Drew,
You get all of my votes plus any extras I can find lying around.
Frank,
I understand your position, but not your resignation to the status quo.
* My opinion: the OOo wiki is a public domain forum. I couldn't care
less about what Wikipedia does with their material. If people want to
publish to the OOo wiki, it should be with the unequivocal understanding
that to do so places their own work in the PD. If they need to click on
a "I agree" button to make it official, so be it. Further, if they are
copying, excerpting, or otherwise drawing on copyrighted material, it is
their responsibility to ensure that such posting complies with whatever
license, law, treaty, or regulation under which the material is
released.
+1. Copyrighted material can be parked on another site and linked from the wiki.
As for lawyers, I live in the middle of tens of thousands of square
miles of mostly empty, semi-arid land. I will gladly lead the
experiments designed to assess the agricultural value of lawyers,
judges, and politicians. In theory, their usefulness as fertilizer
should be great, but I'm concerned that it wouldn't be possible to
reduce the concentration to levels that wouldn't be toxic. Anybody want
to join me in applying for a study grant?
:-)
Best regards,
Marbux
(who is happily retired and no longer a lawyer)
