David that isn't relevant.
Copyright and Credit are two seperate items.  We need to discuss them  
seperately.
You don't Credit the Copyright holder.  You Credit your source, which  may or 
may not be a copyright holder.
 
You credit where *you* got it from.  You even "Credit" public domain  sources 
such as "the Monroe County courthouse" which holds no copyrights on  anything 
whatsoever.
 
"Credit" doesn't need to know who holds the copyright, you are merely  
stating what your own source was.  "Credit" has nothing to do with "Law",  it has to 
do with "Normal scholarly citation methods"
