The free spread of information should not be subject to the wishes of any individual or corporation. Furthermore, copyright is not a criminal issue. So nothing's wrong until someone gets sued. When it comes to lojban (i.e., translating things to a language which no substantial number of potential consumers speak), it is not in the financial interest of the copyright holder to sue (that is, assuming people don't provide the english as well). You're worrying about a nonimportant issue. --=20 Jordan DeLong - fracture@allusion.net lu zo'o loi censa bakni cu terzba le zaltapla poi xagrai li'u sei la mark. tuen. cusku --wRRV7LY7NUeQGEoC Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.1 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQE/ejGEDrrilS51AZ8RAhxoAJ0YUvjfNHbUECBRAFd9HuU4JxBr5QCgiuHU NrKMgaaXrNF/X2dSBkZm0YE= =lqys -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --wRRV7LY7NUeQGEoC--
