Another interesting question (at least to me!) is as follows:

In one of the Boston Computer Society User Groups, a "public-domain"
disk is distributed to the group as a whole.  Part of the disk is usually
a number of well written documents that are copyrighted by the author.

When I discussed putting the disk contents on a BBS, the User Group president
immediately started talking about copyright violation.

When you put copyrighted information out into the "public-domain", what
rights do you give-up/keeep???
