Re: [HCDX] Information should be free

["Robert Montgomery" <RMonty3@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I agree. I think if someone where to take something word for word and copy
it and signing their name to it should be hung out to dry.  No two ways
about it.  But that is not what I read.  It was a mention that they should
be coming back up on line and no word for word copy of anything.

You want to kill this hobby off quick start this copyright stuff and it will
go away quick.
