Peter M-R's , along with I think essentially everybody, agrees that the abstracts prepared by the *publishers* are unquestionably copyright. What he is proposing the use of is abstracts we prepare ourselves and publish under a free license. Publishers have never denied the right to do this manually; they claim to deny the right to do so using computer technology, and Peter is contesting this--I hope successfully
