That would be weird since several countries do not even have a concept of "public domain" in their laws. Personally, I would not release significant creative work into the public domain since somebody else can pick it up and create, legally, a proprietary work not giving any credit (or royalty) to me and make a profit from denying the public exactly the kind of access I wished to have granted it. I might think about "public domain" for transcribing old works more or less trivially, where the question is not as much one of skills but just one of who does it when he needs it done. In short, stuff where it would be dubious anyway whether my work on them contained copyrightable portions. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
