It apparently has rather large ramifications for all types of data (read that as genealogical data). The way most people understand it is that once some data was published by someone, it would then be considered "copyrighted" by them, and would not be able to be redistributed. If you do a Google search (which, BTW, might also be affected by this type of a bill) on the name of the bill (HR 3261 or HR3261), there is more information out there. Does anyone know more about this than me, and am I worrying for nothing? If not, we might want to contact our representatives on this one. http://www.publicknowledge.org/content/legislation/legislation-hr3261-bill/attachment Mary Kathryn Kozy mkozy@attglobal.net --=======67AF501C=======--
