What is the importance of this? -----Original Message----- From: Clemi Blackburn [mailto:clemi@chipshot.net] Sent: Monday, May 03, 2004 7:49 PM To: PLANTAGENET-DESCENDANTS-PROJECT-L@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [PDP] Medieval Fashion I have received variations on what was included at the bottom of the message. It has nothing to do with the copyright of a hyperlink, but rather pertains to Kevin's messages as a whole. In fact, Kevin did not use the word copyright though all original messages are the property of the writer. What is intended by his "Confidentiality Notice" is simply to inform those reading that it is not to be forwarded without permission for it is his message and no one has permission to forward it. It also informs readers if they were not the intended recipient, please delete it. I have, actually received messages not intended for me and have complied with the request. No big deal. I would imagine Kevin and many others use this method trying to protect their creative work. It has nothing to do with the hyperlink per se. That was merely something he felt the list would find interesting. In other words, this message was intended only for the PDP list. The notice will likely be found at the bottom of any messages created entirely by him and should certainly be respected. The sad thing is when others disregard the request. Even sadder is to forward on the work of others whether or not there is a notice.

I initially raised the question because when I particularly like a link in someone's message, I may want to share it with other lists.
