Re: cookbook - another format

[Guest guest]

-I have two basic questions:

1. Who actually owns the Copyright ?

Are all submitted recipes original? If so, the originator owns the

copyright and can do whatever they choose.

Did the recipe originate elsewhere? If so,t then we do not have the

right to license the recipe as free, especially if the recipe

originated in a copyrighted or commercial form (for example, book,

magazine, etc.)

2. What is the intended use?

Do most folks want to use this:

On line

Off line but on computer

Print version

For my personal use, I'd like a multi-platform capability: online for

all to see, one that I can have on my laptop, and one I can print &

take to the kitchen. And, yes, it's very possible with the right

tool...
