I haven't thought it all through, but here's one thing I know: *DON'T* omit the copyright statement from the source, assuming it'll get put in by the stylesheet. Also: *DON'T* treat the copyright stuff as a boilerplate issue. THINK HARD about it, every time you share a copy with anybody, if not every time you hit the save button. See also: the W3C IPR notice http://www.w3.org/Consortium/Legal/ipr-notice and the related FAQ http://www.w3.org/Consortium/Legal/IPR-FAQ.html "Eve L.
