I do not think it is necessary to comment on whether the editor had a good idea or not to make the wikijunior on big cats available for print. It seems pretty natural to think he made it in good faith. I did not have the opportunity to see the version, since it was removed from Lulu site. Also, unless I am wrong in what defines an "author", I see not why the Foundation would be listed as a co-author of the books, or of any wikibooks in the future. There is an issue on which I'd like to react though. Anthony wrote "Distributing content (including in print form) *is* the purpose of Wikimedia." Well.... not exactly. The bylaws do mention a distribution free of charge, but it makes no reference on whether it should be online, on paper, on dvd etc... The bylaws do not mention a distribution non-free of charge. The main page mentions "encouraging the growth, development and distribution of free, multilingual content". Note the "encouraging". It means "support", "help", "initiate"... but not necessarily "do". It is still unclear to me (and probably to most) whether *online*, we are hosting or publishing. I think jurisdiction is messy anyway, so we should probably claim "hosting" but legally plan to be qualified "publishing". However, as soon as we make a DVD or a paper version, we'll definitly be "publisher". So, with no doubt enter a certain category, with a certain amount of legal risks. And a certain amount of benefits. Which might make the risk worth. Among benefits, a financial one. It is unclear as of today whether we are looking for *this* specific benefit though. *I* am not looking for that benefit for the Foundation. I do not know if other board members would. Another benefit would be to help distribution, for example in providing all pressed dvd to ship in certain countries. We could press the DVD and get as an income exactly what the DVD costs us. This is a different benefit. And one which might possibly induce lesser costs in case of a problem. There is also a certain benefit in terms of image. *If* we become publishers, we should know why we are becoming publishers. To make cash ? To improve image ? To satisfy a sponsor ? To provide kids in schools ? But in any cases, it is not among goals of the Foundation to become publishers to make *profit*. Distributing content in print form *is* not the purpose of Wikimedia. We may do it. It is not our declared goal. Anthere __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
