On which basis it would be wisest to *not* post this material here.
I base that on having been reprimanded for similar actions on other lists,
and feedback from the technical people that it is very
difficult/inconvenient to remove posts from the archive.
So while it might be convenient, someone will have serious headaches if the
Daily Mail demands the content be removed from the archive.
Brian.

I was merely stating that your logic is flawed. We aren't claiming any
ownership of posts to this list, or content ownership. It's just being
reposted as a convienience.

Uh, what?
I snipped half a dozen paragraphs that had been copied word-for-word from
the Daily Mail's website. That's a copyright violation. The link isn't.

Under that logic, posting the link is a copyright violation as it does not
belong to us.

Both this list and wikien-l are public. To repost a substantial portion of a
news website's article on either of these mailing lists is a copyright
violation.

Local english tabloid puts it's slant on the news. Unfortunately we didn't
get any quote in there.
