[About postings to COLS by Moe Trin and Ertugrul Soeylemez, and your
commendable desire to publish some of them in The Slack World:]

Posts to USENET are in the public domain, generally. But, we still
prefer to ask for permission to publish the posts verbatim or with
some alterations.

You are mistaken in your assumption that posting ones creations to
Usenet puts them into the public domain. The small grain of truth is
that a copyright owner's ability to collect damages for copyright
infringement might be impaired by such posting, since arguably the
poster considers such writings to have minimal commercial value. Also,
the poster creates an _implied licence_ to use his/her work in the
fashion that is ordinary and customary for Usenet posts.

But without a doubt, Moe Trin and Ertugrul Soeylemez _continue_ to own
valid copyrights over the creative content in their postings -- and it
is necessary (not to mention good manners) to ask their permission for
non-Usenet redistribution.
