Re:Question about sharing recipes with [another] group--semi-OT

[Guest guest]

Change a few words in the directions of how a recipe is made and it is no longer

copyrighted material as only the directions can be copyrighted as the food

ingredients

cannot be. We have been over this several times on the mixer-owner's

list.

Re:Question about sharing recipes with [another]

group--semi-OT

 

 

I have no original recipes and I have no objections. I think it's commonly

done, especially with recipes.

 

However, passing on someone else's email is technically a copyright

violation (even if you attribute appropriately); each person owns his own

email

essentially. To avoid this, you technically need to contact each poster before

you

pass something on. You would need to do this anyway, because your blanket

request (and our implicit consent by not objecting) now wouldn't cover people

who join later.

 

You can search the public Archives of a group such as the Group Manager's

Forum: _http://tech.GroupManagersForum_

(http://tech.GroupManagersForum)

Check Files, then the Legal folder for a short explanation OR do a search of

their Messages.
