As a Rootsweb list admin for numerous lists, your request is somewhat against the AUP (Acceptable Use Policy) for Rootsweb. Even though the two companies are one in the same the specific legalities about posting copyrighted material are clearly stated in the AUP. This would be a violation of that and the list could be terminated. Both Rootsweb and Ancestry.com are very strange about their relationship and about how data "WE" post to their servers is manipulated. I can post a message and then extract it form the Archives and the AUP states I can not repost my message anywhere else, burn cd's, sell access to it etc.... Even though I posted it. I can post it directly to other places and sell it if I want to, but that has to be a separate transaction and not involving the Rootsweb archives. Even then its a grey area.... Not that I support this type of AUP since most people know I support "Free Genealogy" and that I am the first to photocopy whole books, repost email sent to me on my website and anything that "I" deem needed in the research that I have going is fair game when it relates to my family. Feel free to post anything that you can put on here that can not be proven was "Cut and pasted" verbatim, and any Digital images of Deeds, Books, certificates, licenses, military papers, DAR papers etc I will gladly post on my Shivers Family Legends website since it is pertaining to researching the variations of the Shivers family history.
