Wot, no mention of the US copyrights in foreign works?
I could not find a direct e-mail address for the Samuelson clinic, so I am posting my questions here in the hopes that someone from the clinic will read them.
- Is the handbook or the handbook with visuals licensed under a Creative Commons license?
- Are the handbook and visuals available in epub format or Kindle format?
Is there only one unique instance of the original? --> Too bad, the owner owns copyright in the copies he allows, and hence can restrict copies-of-the-copies.
Has Disney created a derivative? --> Too bad, that means they now own the original as well.
Does someone rich enough want to sue you anyway? --> Too bad, you won’t be able to prove it’s public domain before the attorneys bankrupt you.
Et cetera.
