All comments must be moderated by a member of the IPKat team before they appear on the blog. Comments will not be allowed if the contravene the IPKat policy that readers' comments should not be obscene or defamatory; they should not consist of ad hominem attacks on members of the blog team or other comment-posters and they should make a constructive contribution to the discussion of the post on which they purport to comment.
It is also the IPKat policy that comments should not be made completely anonymously, and users should use a consistent name or pseudonym (which should not itself be defamatory or obscene, or that of another real person), either in the "identity" field, or at the beginning of the comment. Current practice is to, however, allow a limited number of comments that contravene this policy, provided that the comment has a high degree of relevance and the comment chain does not become too difficult to follow.

To be honest, I'm not sure how much you can read into these results. The question was whether formats should be given "explicit" protection. Some people might want them protected but not feel the need for them to be protected explicitly with yet another copyright directive...
ReplyDeleteWhy would any sensible soul be so hung up about theoretical issues of legal doctrine that he'd want formats to be protected, but insist on their protection by one type of right and not another?
ReplyDeleteI'm one of those 18 exiled pollsters... I just was having a bad day and wanted to punish some medias...
