[Nfb-krafters-korner] help with copyright

[Eileen Scrivani]

Hi Cindy:

I never said a pattern can be posted to someone else's web site without the 
express, written permission of the copyright holder.  Just as sending a mass 
mailing on a distribution or email list is a violation of the copyright. 
The only permissable thing is to put a link to where a pattern or 
information is so others interested can easily go to that web site and read 
it for themself.

Really, its not a difficult task to click on a link in a message and then 
just navigate the screen with standard screen reading navigation commands to 
read the information you're interested in.  If people can do it in an email 
message, the same keyboard skills can easily be transfered to navigating a 
web page.  If it were difficult and stressful, beleive me, I would not be 
doing it myself.

Eileen
