What about the copyright issues??

Hi Gordon,

Some forum owners put up a clause on their sites that say that all material posted becomes the copyright of that forum.

Legally, I don't believe this to be correct.
I think the writer of the post (if it is his or hers original material) would still own the copyright.

However, I think one would still have to obtain each of the writers permission before republishing it in an e-zine.

This could be very time consuming on a daily or weekly basis. Unless you got a "blanket cover" agreement with the more popular writers to republish anything they have written.

Just my two bobs worth.

Warmest Regards

Ricky Higgs
