Re: CPED

Dear Jim,

Thanks for the link.  Interesting article.

The whole issue of copyright has led me to one observation - that if one
really wanted to, one could do away with those institutions which insist
upon copyrighting the dhamma by creating one's own PD editions.  Rather
than doing so, we rely on copyrighted material (often high-priced), and
find our selves in the position of either breaking a copyright law or
allowing our hands to be tied in regards to dissemination of the dhamma.

That's just a thought.  I'm currently wrestling with the whole idea, as
I have an electronic edition of the PTS PED that would be really useful
for others, but for the existence of a society founded by the dead
authors of the dictionary.

Best wishes,

Yuttadhammo
