I had understood the opposite to be true -- that as long as a work
remains under copyright in the country in which the original copyright
was registered, it remains under copyright in all countries who are
signatories to the Berne Convention.  If I'm mistaken, I hope someone
can point us toward documentation that will clarify this always thorny
issue!
