Yes, I agree that the copyright is dubious.
The HPB works are in public domain, only notes and compliation can be 
copyrighted, but they are by Zirkoff, not by TPH. As far I know it 
was a joint project of TS Pasadena & TS Adyar.

Did anyone succeed to download htmls before they were removed?
I think it would be a good idea to put them online again, perhaps, on 
the ULT site. It surely will conform the objects of ULT declaration.

The BCW CD cannot replace the online edition because it has search 
system much inferior to any internet search engine like Google which 
can be applied to online edition.

>From the other hand, CD is better because it keeps italics and other 
font properties which were often lost in the online edition.
Yet it doesn't matter if we use this edition for search only.
Later the old files can be gradually replaced by the newer, keepeing 
the original formatting.
