I had an interesting issue today at Staples.
I took in the pdf files to have them printed. The nice young man said that because of the copyright notice on page one they could not print the rules.
Then he said he could not print off the two appendices from the SCCA either as it was obvious that they were copies "from a book" and they would need proof that the files were not copyrighted too.
So it is illegal to print these rules, even at home.
I kid you not!
So, instead of a copyright notice on the first page should either say nothing or "Copy Freely" on the opening page. The SCCA sections need a copy of the permission obtained by ARMS to use them.
