Dear All,My advice stands. What you might choose to do within your own company is one thing - I'm sure your company lawyers can help you on matters of copyright. What you post to a world-wide, public group is another. For your information, I am a registered member of this group. If the originators of the group intended it to be a private, internal group, they shouldn't have done it through Google - it's the gateway to the entire world!I think that this is a very useful forum and a splendid way to share advice and information - just please be careful about copyright issues. The API in particular seems to be very hot on them. If you buy a digital (PDF) version of their specs now, single-user versions are literally that - you'll only be able to install it on one machine and you can only print it once. Which is great if your printer runs out of ink half-way through. I've gone back to buying paper copies.I do consulting work on various oilfield problems and I teach materials, corrosion and welding matters to M.Sc. students at the Robert Gordon University in Aberdeen, where they are VERY sensitive about copyright issues.Regards to all and keep up the good work!Owen Jenkins.----- Original Message -----From: shailesh daveSent: Thursday, February 21, 2008 10:34 AMSubject: [MW:589] Re: Annular bottom plates from API-650 TanksDear Mr. Kannan,I don't think there is any problem in sending the attachment all across as we are doing with our company and to other companies. Since these are soft copies of the docs. which we are circulating we are not breaching the laws of copy rights in any case. These attachments are circulated for sharing the knowledge and not for destructive activities.Regards,
Dear Friends,
A non- member has posted this message. I am sorry on posting a part para of the API code for better understanding.
I think and suggest to this group, as does yahoogroups, it would be better to avoid even attachments.
I request all others to follow suit and take this seriously as I have now.
Again sorry to all members and moderators for causing to be noticed by someone somewhere.
With regards,
Kannan Sundaram.
