That's a damn good point.

Sorry, I'm used to people asking for technical information for 
work-related purposes (which was allowed in the 1988 Act you quote, but 
then changed in the 2003 Regulations.)

I'd forgotten about the exemption for genuine "private study".

It's worth noting that what constitutes "a reasonable proportion" of a 
work isn't actually defined - though many Universities interpret that to 
mean "a single article from a magazine".

Good link - thanks. Back in the days when I was at University, I 
actually had to pay for my copy of the Computer Misuse Act :-)

The copyright act 1988 section 29 permits copying of a reasonable number
of pages from a magazine (I think this is what is meant by the words
'fair dealing' used in the act) for private study or research.

The complete act can be found at

That's very kind of you Tony. Could you scan it and email it to my email
address - I will be eternally in your debt. Let me know if there's anything
I can do in return (within reason!) :-)

Concerning file systems, one of the podcasts I was listening to
recently talked about ext4. Does anyone know when that's going to

I don't really want to part with my copy, but I can photocopy the
article and send you it, if you want?

[ubuntu-uk] Anyone buy Linux Format magazine?

2007-09-19 Thread Mark Allison
Hi there,

I'm just reading through this month's Linux Format mag (LXF97 Oct 07) and 
noticed that there was a good article on the 
linux filesystem in issue LXF95 (Aug 07). Does anyone have a copy that they 
don't want any more? Could you post 
it to me (I'll cover the cost of the mag and postage). I'd much appreciate that 
- I've been using Linux for a few 
months and have much to learn.

Thanks again,
Mark.
