Well, you see there is one little problem, and this effects HardCore as well. It is
my understanding (not that I'm remotely an expert on law) that articles for
journals are usually copyrighted by the journal (though not always), but after a
certain period of time the copyright reverts to the author. That might also apply
to programs in magazines like Nibble. Does anyone have better information on this?
Any authors out there?
