Replying to LO21001 --

Our policy here is "All msgs copyright (c) *msg author* unless otherwise
stated." The copyright holds even though LO msgs are freely available to
the public.

I suggest these practical principles:

- If you get an idea from someone on the list, credit them.

- If you want to publish the text of a msg appearing here, get permission.

- You can always provide a link to the original msg in the LO archives.
(Just find the msg on http://www.learning-org.com and note the URL. Msgs
stay in the archive unless removed by the author.)

- Feel free to mention the learning-org dialogue anywhere with words
something like, "...Learning-org, a continuing internet discussion about
organizational learning hosted by Richard Karash,
http://www.learning-org.com ". (Do not publish the list email address, use
the URL instead.)

It is an unfortunate fact that email addresses can go bad and some authors
may be difficult to contact.
