Dear Henry Rzepa,
I think I have responded to the question of Copyright. The Arkat Foundation
fully supports the "Openarchives" initiative and we would consider adopting
any constructive changes to Copyright as long as we can prevent abuse and
duplication of content by unauthorised third parties.
Arkat Foundation, encourages the publication of "datment". Datment, in the
future, may lead to unforeseen problems associated with multiple server side
maintenance, whereby imbedded links break or due to new developments if
content has to be migrated.
Ownership is far more important if content is to be sold, which the Arkat
Foundation does not intend.
In addition to data, technology will soon permit, "voice links" in
documents!
I think these are important and far reaching issues. This forum is ideal to
discuss and implement changes.
Kind regards,
Paul Thind
Arkat Foundation, Zurich

This of course is the topic of major debate, particularly in the
"Openarchives" initiative. The consensus is that the community
is moving from publishers owning "all rights forever" to
authors granting "rights to publish" to authors "self archiving" .
We have promoted the concept of a datument", a document which
includes "machine processable" information (such as molecule
connection tables,spectral data, physical data, units, etc) seamlessly
combined within the document. The ownership of such a semantically
rich object is even more important to establish. Most publishers we
ask about this refuse to comment (they are very very afraid of the
implications).
