Theos-Talk Archives (January 2011 Message tt00069)

Last night a friend of mine was telling me that even publications out of
copyright have been scanned and few comments added here and there and
copyright is claimed by the publisher.

Even SD Commentaries fall into the same category. 99% of the material is out
of copyright.
