Hello Ralph,
some notes:
- I pointed on the CD for the low band-width internet user. As far as I know
that CD is sold for nearly it's material price and shipping cost only
- I also know that Lorenz' book doesn't return his expenses but he still owns
the copyright because he is the one putting that stuff to paper. So
third-parties have to credit him for his tremendous work when publishing his
work somewhere else.
- I do not have any problem with providing the information in a book or website
but with stripping off the original maintainer and source.
- About the list-members I mentioned:
You and Marian Gunkel (mentioned as Admin in your list)
found in PouchBoats Discussion Forum: Test Messages: New test
(Marian is hosting a list-server about the project I mentioned, their primary
aims are somewhat documented in
http://www.egroups.com/message/faltboot/22
for those who are able to read german
So, call me an a.... but when I read your question and thought about forwarding
part of mails somewhere else I came to the point that baidarka list infos should
always be quoted with source and original author, everywhere.
As you might already know, I am German, know a little about Pouch boats and see
myself as a pretender of the folding kayak and the distribution of valuable
info.
Please don't get me wrong, I NEVER want to discredit your business!
But give Caesar what is Caesars. :-)
Cheers
Gerald
