[Foundation-l] Re: Copyright of Vatican stuff

[Anthere]

http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,,13509-2005615,00.html

here it says

The edict covers Pope Benedict XVI’s first encyclical, which is to be 
issued this week amid huge international interest. The edict is 
retroactive, covering not only the writings of the present pontiff — as 
Pope and as cardinal — but also those of his predecessors over the past 
50 years. It therefore includes anything written by John Paul II, John 
Paul I, Paul VI and John XXIII.


Is it again incorrect press report ?
