you're right about some acceptation of copyrighted works...
To answer to Cary Bass, there're some examples in New York streets
categories... I don't think that the architect of Apple store or some
recents buildings are already dead... so it's a form of acceptation
(reagarding fench law)
you're right also about the delay ... 70 years after the 1st january
following the dead of the author...

I Made a confusion with the american law before 1998 ...
So I'm agree with you, the deletion seems to be a little too reprehensive
regarding some accepation and the law.
I also note that there were very few person involve in this deletion
request.
Sincerely
