My understanding of copyright law (limited) was that if one expects something to be protected by copyright, then one has to inform potential viewers/readers/listeners. Otherwise they may not know to protect your content. Thus without a (c) attached, then one could not come back and claim infringement.
Thus I thought that the default was NO copyright. You are saying the default IS copyright. Perhaps this is the blind arguing with the blind... :-) Kevin On 3/13/06, Richard Schilling <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Ownership of postings, like an open source applicaion itself > automatically belongs to the author(s) - UNLESS the terms of usage on > the Wiki state that all postings become property of the Wiki maintainer. > > Perhaps a terms of use statement should be created for that Wiki. > > The open source license used to disemminate the posting doesn't actually > affect ownership - it signifies that the owner has guaranteed the > posting can be distributed without compensating him/her. > > The concepts of ownership and distribution licenses are oft confused :-) > > And I wouldn't rely on Google or anyone else keeping a permanent archive > either.... > > Richard Schilling > > > Bhaskar, KS wrote: > > No, it doesn't.
