| AKart -
I am glad to hear that you obtained permission in many cases. Please know that your web site will have my full support, provided sources are credited.
You view the material that you copied from Dave Baum's (which appears to have since been added to) site as "Links on another sites and free information about literature which have no authors and copyrights." I don't see it quite the same way. It is true that there is no expressed copyright on his page, but he is clearly the author (and compiler of this information) and you did not credit the source. Even if my interpretation of the situation differs, I accept your intention to abide by authorship rules per your interpretation noted in your post.
Yesterday I exchanged email with Dave about this, and believe he would be willing to grant you permission for non-commercial use. Please send me a PM or email message if you need his contact information.
I am a strong advocate of the need to obtain permission and credit sources, and will acknowledge that it came across in my previous post. But I never issued an ultimatum, so I have nothing to withdraw. If you want to discuss further, let's take it to private email.
Respectfully,
- Matt
