US Copyright Office asking about "orphan

US Copyright Office asking about "orphan
works"

Dan Gillmor on Grassroots
Journalism
Copyright Progress, Maybe
The U.S. Copyright Office wants
comments on
"the issues raised by 'orphan works,'
i.e., copyrighted works whose owners are difficult or even impossible
to locate. Concerns have been raised that the uncertainty surrounding
ownership of such works might needlessly discourage subsequent
creators and users from incorporating such works in new creative
efforts or making such works available to the
public."
This is wonderful news, and a sign of that
people like Larry Lessig are
making progress in educating the powers-that-be on the issues.
Public Knowledge has a
good summary.
This is good news. Of course my opinion is
that orphan works should go to the public domain. I guess the details
of how one determines whether something is an orphan or not will be
important, but I'm sure we can think of something. Lessig's idea of a
minimal charge to keep your copyright alive comes to mind.

Microsoft Office PowerPoint® 2003
05/27/2004 03:09 AMThe Data Assistant for Microsoft® Office PowerPoint® 2003 provides
an easy-to-use method of inserting and managing graphical data objects
such as Visio drawings, and Excel charts and named ranges into
PowerPoint presentations.
There are three basic features for the tool: inserting graphical data
objects into PowerPoint, saving graphical data objects for future use,
and retrieving saved graphical data objects for reuse. Because the
Data Assistant creates a connection between PowerPoint and the host
application of the data object (Excel or Visio), you have the option
of inserting the data object as it was saved or refreshing it to
reflect any changes that were made to the data object.

01/26/2004 01:10 AMMicrosoft continues to build bridges between Office desktop apps and
reservoirs of back-office data. The "Information Worker Bridge"
project now under way seeks to make it easier for integrators or
in-house developers to make Excel or Word de-facto front ends for
back-end accounting, ERP or other applications, sources said. In
theory, this would take back-office integration beyond ODBC drivers
and InfoPath, the Office application that lets people build dynamic
forms on their desktops that tap into back-office XML data.
