In addition, The Internet OracleTM (also known as The Usenet
OracleTM) holds a copyright on oracularities according to the
following policy, as stated by Kinzler:
As stated in the Oracle help file, users of the Oracle
implicitly give their permission for Oracularities to be used in the
Usenet Oracularities digests. Less than 7% of the more than 100,000
Oracularities written have been selected by the Oracle priesthood and
compiled, published and vote tabulated by myself. These digests do
have a copyright, which I hold on behalf of the "Oracle". I consider
this compilation copyright to apply to any subset of Oracularities from
the Internet Oracularities digests. So, while an author can still
maintain a personal copyright on their own questions and answers,
they implicitly grant their use as Usenet Oracularities publications
and republications.
The Internet OracleTM and The Usenet OracleTM
are trademarks held by Steve Kinzler.
