    2. Dan
    3. This sounds like it can become a real problem, I think these are being tossed around as corporate lost leaders for one reason or the other. Maybe Carol can help with this explaination. Also FTM is the sponser of GenForum. So it looks like one company is going to own every thing. On a side note; too ; I heard (all) genealogy is going to be shut down in Oregon asap, and we will not get into marriage and death certs. I am going to town to get all the death certs I can think of.

    1. [BROADWATER-L] RE:A BAD BILL??
    2. Dan
    3. Well since this has made it to all the other lists I will put it here too. Double SHEESH!!! A bone from Bono !! I suppose some one will check deaper into this asap. Dan ========================================================= - Congress Passes Bill Detrimental to Genealogists The U.S. House of Representatives and the Senate have been working for a while on a bill designed to extend the term of copyright protection by 20 years. H.R. 2589, the House version of copyright term extension and now named, "The Sonny Bono Copyright Term Extension Act," was adopted by the full House or Representatives on March 25, 1998. The bill was sent to the Senate, where it languished for some time. In September the Senate passed a slightly different bill. The two bodies then worked out a compromise document. The House and the Senate passed S. 505 on October 7, 1998. President Clinton signed the bill on October 27, 1998. Per our Constitution, our government, "to promote the science and useful arts" ... secures "for limited times to authors and inventors the exclusive right to their respective writings and discoveries." This balances the right of a person to make a profit, with the right of the people to the work (so they can freely make derivative works). Until 1979, the copyright term was 56 years: one 28 year term, extendible for an additional 28 years. Hence, in 1978 all works created in or before 1922 were in the public domain. In 1979, Congress RETROACTIVELY extended copyright terms 19 years, so that the material from 1923 has never entered the public domain. Now, 19 years later, at the urging of the Walt Disney Company, the Gershwin heirs, and many others concerned with their rights to keep exclusive ownership of intellectual property, Congress has RETROACTIVELY extended copyright terms another 20 years, to 95 years. This means that materials written in 1923, which would have entered the public domain on Jan. 1, 1999, will now enter the public domain on Jan 1, 2019. Materials written in 1924 will now enter the public domain on Jan. 1, 2020. And that, sir, is only if Congress does not retroactively extend the term a third time. What impact does this have on genealogists? We all want information. In this day and age, information usually is found online or on CD-ROM disks. Yet the people who produce those online databases and CD-ROM disks are now prohibited from reproducing materials printed after 1922. Newspapers after 1922 (obituaries, especially) will now be in copyright for another 20 years. You'll need to wait 20 more years before they can be transcribed and put online for free. Old genealogies, which might be useful if reprinted, cannot be freely reprinted or placed online for an additional 20 years. Historical materials cannot be reprinted or placed online for an additional 20 years. Likewise, obscure works whose copyright status is uncertain or where the heirs cannot be tracked down, cannot be placed online for an additional 20 years. For a much more detailed description of the impact, look at: http://www.public.asu.edu/~dkarjala/ My thanks to Richard J. Yanco for his update on the issue. He was quite helpful in describing the legal language of the bill to me. If you would like to contact Richard, he is at: rjyanco@unix.amherst.edu =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D= =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D= =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D Bill Walsh bilwalsh@swbell.net My World http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Prairie/4113/index.html --part0_910623190_boundary--

    3. Since Sgt George has done such a nice job writing this I ask permission to post it on my lists, he has given permission to spread it all over any other list as well as a campaine to help Rootsweb. I think for all of those who agree to this message will be greatly gratified by Rootsweb. Your Host Dan Matney ***************IMPORTANT !!!!! PLEASE READ !!!!!*************** ==== Support of Mailing Lists at RootsWeb ==== Your donations to RootsWeb make this Mailing List possible. Without user donations, there would be no way to continue the Lists. For the upcoming holiday season, how about a little something in the stocking for RootsWeb? I'm sure that the majority of you users have found im- portant data on your ancestors that would have cost you hundreds of dollars if you were forced to dig out the information at libraries, court- houses, etc., in faraway states. Or, had you hired a Professional Genealogist, it could have cost you thousands and thousands of dollars. Just think how fortunate you are to have all the 4200+ Lists available at RootsWeb; and it doesn't cost you a dime!!!!! Come on, let's show our support for this wonderful service. Even if you can't afford much, just $5 or $10 dollars would help if each and every one of you donated. (As a personal example, let me relate this to you: A cousin of mine spent over $6000 about a year and a half ago to have a "Professional Genealogist" do research on our WILKINSON lines in North Carolina. All he did was load up his CD's on his computer and go through all the official documents from NC. Every bit of the information he found had already been found by another Cousin and me on the Web and on these Lists, mostly from the Lists. Could have saved her a bundle had she asked.)
