The sad thing is, it's actually illegal to publish
Wikipedia in the
United States *without* depositing a copy with the Library of
Congress.
What exactly constitutes "publishing"? I wouldn't say that we publish
anything, and the WMF's traditional stance as an ISP and not a
publishing house confirms that. Even in the cases where people print
Wikipedia articles, or Wikibooks pages or whatever for personally use,
is that considered "publishing"? I guess I could use a little lesson
in the terminology.
