Hi Christian,

I wonder what Mr. Weinstein's stance on copyright violations is. 
Clearly from skimming his blog he is concerned about large corporations 
using copyright lawsuits to threaten the rights of end users on the 
Internet.  But what about individual users like Mr. Weinstein himself, 
who might publish a blog and then have an entry copied verbatim on 
public mailing lists?    Do you think he believes all knowledge is for 
the public good and should just be published without permission of the 
author?

At least one of Mr. Weinstein's posts on his blog says:
"Copyright © 2007 Lauren Weinstein.
All rights reserved."

While that was specific to one post, nowhere is there permission granted 
to republish his other works that I can find.

In the event you actually have secured permission to republish his 
works, I apologize for this post, but note it is customary to indicate 
this permission clearly to avoid misunderstanding.

Regards,
