Well, I have read all 999 messages, but there was mostly an expression of
fear that the DMCA might be violated, which I think is not true.  I don't
see where a discussion of facts happened (not that there are many facts to
draw from, considering that the DMCA is such a new law).  There were a lot
of mails which contained errors.

Anyway, I am not on a mission.  I just thought I could bring a somewhat more
positive light on this issue, which I did not see reflected in the archive. 

Thanks,
Marcus
