Claud Johnson is finally enjoying the
fruits of the legendary Robert Johnson's
estate
06/02/2004 01:31 PM
Son of a Bluesman The legend
was that if you touched
Robert
Johnson you could feel the
talent running through
hi
m, like heat,
put there by
the devil on a dark
Delta crossroad in exchange for his soul. It is
why
Claud
Johnson's grandparents would not let him out of the house that day
in 1937 when Robert Johnson, his father, strolled into the yard.
"They told my daddy they didn't want no part of him. They said he
was working for the devil. I stood in the door, and he stood on the
ground, and that is as close as I ever got to him. He wandered off,
and I never saw him again."
Today, in the working-class neighborhood where he raised his children,
Claud Johnson, a rich man, lives in a grand house on 47 acres of
property. (After Claud won his court battle in 1998 and was recognized
as the son of the blues legend, his lawyer handed him a six-figure
cashier's check and begged him to quit hauling gravel. Claud kept
hauling gravel for five months. "After 29 years, it just gets in
your blood").
His victory stands out in the annals of Mississippi probate law. It
took 10 years, two trips to the State Supreme Court and two trips to
the U.S. Supreme Court. Not to mention, most of the first two or three
generations of blues musicians died without securing rights to their
composition. Explains Thomas Freeland, a Mississippi attorney and
blues historian: when the San Francisco-based band the Grateful Dead
recorded
songs by the
Nor
th Carolina blues musician
Elizabeth Cotten,
Freeland said, "the story is,
[she] bought a dishwasher with the
royalties."

process (copying a large file, loading data from a server, retrieving
files from the Internet) would be both difficult and inefficient. What
you end up with is a process that is going to take long enough to make
the user wait, yet you have no easy way to indicate the percentage of
the task that has completed. A regular progress bar would be rather
meaningless, so you need some form of "Working…" indicator.

iCommons Progress
04/26/2004 06:08 AMIn the first quarter of the current year, iCommons has made
significant progress in porting the CC licences - based on
US-copyright law - to other jurisdictions, thereby internationalizing
the movement. By early April, three European countries (Germany,
Croatia and the Netherlands) as well as Australia and Jordan had come
up with the first drafts of their respective licences. Austria and
South Africa are scheduled to be next. In total, some sixteen
jurisdictions have now launched their final or preliminary drafts.

06/05/2004 01:42 PMMore from Jerry Lobdill, who writes about his own wonderful
experiences with the existing copyright system:
I am a small businessman. Among other things I am interested in
publishing a few things. I have multiple interests, so the subjects
I'm interested in vary. One of my interests is the history of the US,
especially the era of the wild west.
I have discovered an out of print book that is extremely important to
students of the wild west. It is extremely rare and was published only
in first edition in 1928. This book was renewed in the name only of
the author in 1955, and under present law will not enter public domain
until 2022. (According to my research no published works will enter
the public domain until 2019.) However, the author died in 1963. He
had no children, and his wife died in 1976. Her will does not mention
any copyrights. I am obtaining a copy of the will of the author but
have not seen it yet. I have had the US Copyright Office do a paid
search, and all they have on record is that the author renewed the
copyright in 1955. There is no record of transfer of ownership on
file.
I inquired of the original publisher if they knew anything about the
author's copyright and was first told that they knew nothing about the
book of interest. Then, they said they thought they owned the
copyright but were investigating to be certain. Then I was told that
they definitely owned the copyright. When I asked for a xerox of the
copyright transfer document that law prescribes, transferring the
renewed copyright to them, they refused to produce it, saying that
their policy is not to provide such information to "private parties".
When I explained that I was thinking of republishing the book and that
the US Copyright Office records show that the renewal belonged to the
author only, and that I needed proof of their claim before negotiating
for publishing rights, I was told that I was too small a publisher to
qualify.
So...here I sit, with an extensive file that contains no transfer
document. The US Copyright Office has no record of a transfer of
ownership, and I feel that there is a strong possibility that the
publisher is lying about ownership. If so it would not be unusual in
today's environment. They probably hoped that I'd negotiate with them
without proof.
As a result of this situation I have spent money and time and have
only a written assertion of ownership without proof. Were it not for
this unsupported claim I would know that there was a transfer or that
there is no one alive who is likely to challenge my republication of
the book.
The law is flawed in my opinion if it requires a written transfer of
ownership (like real property) but does not require a claimant to
produce the proof of ownership except in the context of a copyright
infringement suit.
If you agree, what can be done to get the law repaired? The way it is
now it invites and rewards false claims of this sort to the detriment
of reasonable use of works that are effectively public
domain.

It's
simple.)
