[Nfb-krafters-korner] to everyone

[qubit]

Hi all --
I am glad the meeting went well -- I was there but as I woke up this morning 
and tried to remember something about it, I my mother informed me that I had 
fallen asleep during the meeting last night and that you all were laughing 
at me as Mom found me sleeping by the phone and asked you how to hang up my 
cell phone.
Oh well.  From your mail I am piecing together what the conclusions were.  I 
confess I was not one who was much concerned about copyrighting my 
contributions as I have only taught 2 classes (others to come) and I always 
figured that if I was going to post something on the internet without any 
copyright notices, I just assumed it was everyone's property.  Also, at 
least some of the info I posted, whether over the list in the form of 
patterns, or on sendspace after teaching, was not my own design, but 
something I learned elsewhere over the years.  The only thing copyrightable 
would have been the instructional method.
I like what I hear about the resolutions and I'm glad it didn't turn into a 
flame war, which I was a little afraid of given the tone of some of the 
emails.
Happy krafting.

I have had a very busy day ,but I was very satisfied with the meeting last 
night.  Things were well handled and I am glad it was discussed out in the 
open.
I like the idea of a frequently asked questions or maybe a tips and tricks. 
I like the idea of putting paterns and or directions on the site for members 
to refer to.
I want to see this group grow and flerish and reach out to other countries, 
in the near future.  I have faith  that we can do it.  If time is a problem, 
teach the ones on the west coast and they can hold classes for those in 
other countries.  Computers are a great tool.  We just need to be flexible 
and learn to bend a little and lend a helping hand to those far, far away.

As our policy has been in the past:

Recordings of classes will be available to the teacher and the  students 
that are present in the class.  NFB Krafters Division nor  the teachers will 
or can sell the recordings.  The recordings will  be posted to send space 
for
download for a limited time only.   The NFB Krafters Division does not
have
control of how long the link  on send space will be up there.  So it is 
suggested that you go to  send space when you receive the email link and 
download  your  class.  NFB Krafters Division will not be responsible for 
archiving or  keeping these recordings.

These other things concerning putting statements on the web, class proposals 
and sign up for classes as Eileen has put in an email NFB Krafters Division 
will need to  have legal advise and until that is done  we  can not move
forward.

I have been asked and I will clearify the statement I made above.
"Recordings of classes will be available to the teacher and the  students 
that are present in the class.  "
to clarify:

Teachers and students only that have attended a class will be notified about 
download.

"NFB Krafters Division nor the teachers will or can sell the  recordings.  "
The recording of the classes can not or will not be sold by NFB  Krafters 
Division or the teacher.

National Federation of the Blind Krafters Division
