Hi Gaja and list,
Yes, I am aware that Marin is by no means the only person that does this.
Nevertheless, it should not be done. Asking for permission is not that hard
really, and most authors are happy to say yes.

Hi Steve and list,
While we are on the subject, I found my RAID paper on
multiple sites including this site :
http://www.vampired.net/articles/php/concepts.php and
I know for a fact that no one has gotten permission
from me or IOUG-A, in this regard. Does this not
mirror what is done on Marin's site?
