Outstanding! 3 words to change the world!<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Oct 12, 2011 at 9:05 PM, Achal Prabhala <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:aprabhala@gmail.com">aprabhala@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>
<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;">A friend of mine in South Africa, Isabel Hofmeyr, passed on this image<br>
of the first page of the first edition of the English translation of<br>
Gandhi's "Hind Swaraj" - or "Indian Home Rule" in translation. The book<br>
was published in South Africa in 1909, and is rarely available. Isabel<br>
was able to see it courtesy Uma Dhupelia-Mesthrie, who owns a copy.<br>
<br>
And the copyright legend on this front page? It reads:<br>
<br>
"No rights reserved"<br>
<br>
Isabel and Uma kindly offered to donate the image to Commons, and you<br>
can see it here:<br>

<br>
Finally, an answer to the great copyright question that has never been<br>
asked: "What would Gandhi do?" :)<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
Achal<br>
