When we forward the emails with the above note, to other technical
mailing lists,
they scold me for forwarding the copyrighted material.
I do not see any info on copyright or have to put a footnote like
above in any of the news websites.
I request Tinu to remove the footnote or just share the links and some snippet.
Thanks.
You are free to forward just the links. Reproducing verbatim elsewhere might
not go well with "fair use". Also heard elsewhere on another list on the
same topic that news is meant to be shared, so no harm. Frankly all this
obsession on copyright only after editing Wikipedia, otherwise since when
people in India thought of copyright seriously.
