GreenKeyers et al - - -
Copyright infringement can be a serious thing in one's life should
the holder of the copyright sue for infringement of copyrighted
material.
Most of the documentation we GreenKeyers have around is old hat, and
in many instances the copyrights are by virtue of age, disinterest,
or perhaps demise, are in the public domain and no one will sweat
it.
We do have one member of GreenKeys who has been very supportive of
his line of equipment and has in many instances given GreenKeyers
some manner of deal in quest of information on or parts for his
company's products.
I cannot tell anyone what to do, but may I suggest that a review be
made of recent exposure on the internet of some documentation and
drawings of one of the most popular TUs ever designed or
manufactured.
I could have put a wealth of information on this company's products
on RTTY.com, but inasmuch as the owner of the copyrights is still in
business and actively supporting the products, I have earnestly
declined to add anything from this particular manufacturer.
Were the original schematic of the device published, I could care
less. I drew it from Irv's notes and drawings, and gave the vellum
to Irv when I left the bay Area.
The commercial redrawings are another matter, and I think it proper
for the poster to reconsider placing them on the net.
Don't mean to be a poop, but fair is fair, not to mention that
respect for all concerned is only right.
