David, you're basically arguing that, because it was weakened, you can
presume it doesn't apply at all. Commons supposedly operates under the
precautionary principle. This really shouldn't go out the window
because you don't like the law in question, and, had you bothered to
read the link in question, you'll see that, long before I came here, I
was having extreme abuse hurled at me over simply asking for credit
for my work. I didn't decide to pull the images on a whim.
Perhaps you should review the original discussion I linked.
In any case, Commons isn't getting my files while this policy is in
place. Maybe I'll contact some universities or something, because, you
know, if I didn't think I had a right to sweat of the brow copyright,
I'd have happily waived it. But if I'm supposedly evil for claiming
it, and no attempt to actually show that the fact that
sweat-of-the-brow has been fully overturned by the UK is being made,
just claims that AMERICA THE BEAUTIFUL SHOULD BE THE ONLY COPYRIGHT
THAT MATTERS! USA! USA! - then, frankly, I don't feel any need to help
you out.
