Hi Shadi, maybe I can help out with point #2 - this is for 2 reasons - firstly because the hyperlink provides the full text for the copyright policy and secondly because in Shawn's work she says about that sentence - that the wording doesn't seem / can't be right. In reality anyone can quote text as long as it is referenced - this text says that the text can be included in a derived work as though it is the work of the derivee; I agree with Shawn 'this can't be right'. and for my 2 pennth - shall we discuss #1 at the meeting - Shadi, I know you aren't there today so could you be a little more specific as to what you would like to see so I can accurately represent this in the call? cheers Si. PS I check my email at 08:00 and 17:00 GMT. If you require a faster response please include the word 'fast' in the subject line. ======================= Simon Harper http://simon.harper.name/about/card/ University of Manchester (UK) Web Ergonomics Lab - Information Management Group http://wel.cs.manchester.ac.uk On 28/03/2012 09:56, Shadi Abou-Zahra wrote: > Dear Yeliz, Editors, > > Thank you for considering my wording suggestions for the Background > section.
