Hi all,
Apparently the guy from EmbeddedSW found that his corporate email to
a list member about EMUFDD had been quoted on the CoCo list back in
May 2012. I'm guessing he self-googled and found the message in the
archives. He sent a badly spelled email asking the message thread be removed.
Just so you know, copyright law DOES protect the content of private
email. If you want to pass on information from a private email --
even one from a company -- please paraphrase it but don't quote it
without permission. Also remember that copyright covers the
expression of an idea, but not the idea itself.
Let's not provoke any crazies out there, okay?
Thanks,
Dennis
