I don't much care about this one way or the other, but let me point out
that the internet was originally set up by and for universities, and the
rules included the right to copy at will.  That is still the rule.  HOWEVER
it is not correct to say that the founders of the archives hold the
copyright - if something of mine appears there I can still use it if I want
to.  So can anyone else.  There IS no copyright.
