However there is also an ethical issue, and coping and publishing entire pages of published material is not what I consider to be very ethical considering the Society has not given permission for it to be reprinted. In fact there has been complaints. Sharing one or two names on a list is not the same thing as copying their entire works. There is nothing to stop individuals from getting those rosters for themselves and sharing them. ==== ALPIKE Mailing List ==== Please remember anything posted on this list from ALArchives is automated from forms, please look for the contributor and reply to that person. -------------------------------------------------------------------- mail2web - Check your email from the web at http://mail2web.com/ .
