That's not exactly correct. Simply put, in the US, anything you write
down in your words is your property, whether you seek or declare a
copyright or not you cannot copyright a fact, but you can copyright your
unique expression of a fact, which is why the New York Times could sue
someone for cutting and pasting its reportage of, say, a plane crash.
Many trade associations ask those who contribute to their conference
proceedings to sign a waiver permitting the trade association to publish
the paper and (possibly) charge a fee to those who want to access it.
Typically, but not in all cases, the trade association does not seek to
take ownership of the actual content; instead, the waiver is basically an
assignment of certain rights held by the originating person (or their
company).
I would suggest two things. One, post the original pdf as it was supplied
to IPC (thus it would be the author's expression of the facts). Given the
nature of the use here, however, I would guess IPC doesn't particularly
care.
Second, simply ask for an OK to use the copyrighted material. (Or
summarize it in your own words and point to where it resides elsewhere.)
Best,
Mike

Subject: Re: [TN] ist report: PCB vs baking vs design
I was apparently blueeyed. Checked further and found this: if you present
officially a graph or a picture or a formula from someone's paper, you
violate. Not only that...if you have found in a report the answer to your
problem and present that in a mail to others by saying 'guys, if you make
x
and then do y and follow up by mixing z, you may violate because it looks
like you have copied a phrase. And if you change the phrase to avoid the
copy law, you can still be accused..etc
So, all kind of worthful stuff that I have saved during many years is in
pricipal worthless, can as well let it all go into a container and burn
it.
Wished the chinese were as honest and law-abiding as we are.
The conclusion is that I can continue chatting about weather and common
stuff , but avoid discussing too much technical details. My source told
me
that there is a problem going on day and night on Internet: report
fishing!
That's it. Closed.
