Originally I wanted to write a book about the early years of Lego (1956-72),
but I just don't have the time for that.  So yes, you can add it to
LUGNET.FAQ.  You have my blessing.  And there are no copyright issues that
I'm aware of.

Thanks,
Gary Istok

Since several of you have expressed enjoyment with my blathering about
Lego history, I thought I would give you a 1956-65 history on the
origins of Lego plates.

Gary,

How do you feel about letting your material into the LUGNET FAQ?  Do you
have any copyright or ownership issues you feel might get in the way?

Cheers,

Thanks, Gary.  If you have any other articles you want to send towards the
FAQ, please do so!  :-,

...We'd probably want to retain your copyright somehow so that when you do
get around to writing the book, your material is still usable.  i.e. after
being posted in the LUGNET FAQ and possibly copied n^x times, it wouldn't be
public domain, but still yours.  Any ideas?  Copyright wording suggestions?

Cheers,

No, it wouldn't be public domain.  It would still be Gary's.  The words
"public domain" mean "not copyrighted."

If Gary chooses to post it here, then (by the LUGNET Terms of Use) he is
granting a non-exclusive license to use, adapt, republish, etc. his
material.  But he still owns the copyright.
