Web Standards

Mike Brown has put a presentation on web standards online:
http://govis.signify.co.nz
It is plain and simple without being boring...

This is his original post:
<Mike>
I hate to do the "best viewed in" thing , but it's best viewed in
Mozilla/Firefox in fullscreen mode. It uses Eric Meyer's S5 presentation
thingie.
If you print out, or look in print preview, there's speaking notes for
each slide.
It takes a slightly different tack to other arguments I've seen for web
standards and even has a Pulp Fiction theme

Where does he stand on 'Copyright' issues? I think a certain Mr. Tarantino
would like to know....

Pete.

Nice presentation...

Well, I don't much care for the design, it's slow loading, and I dislike
splash screen entrances like he has. So, basically the website lost my
interest before I needed to start reading.

Any fool can paint a picture, but it takes a wise person to be able to sell it.

I wonder if he has permission to use that image?

I doubt Tarantino is going to hunt someone down for using an image from his
film in a 'powerpoint' presentation on web standards. ;o)

(Also, this seems to qualify as parody. ;o)

-Darrel

Parody or not, it's still a strict copyright violation without permission.

Parody is completely valid.

But again, there's no point in us debating it. It's between Tarantino's and
Mike's lawyers, not to mention international copyright organizations and
laws and likely their referees and such and blah, blah, blah...

-Darrel

Sure - it was just an offhand muse.

Parody is completely valid.

So I can use any copyright image or content in a parody without asking
permission?

In the spirit of the law, yes.

In the spirit of litigous lawyers, eh, who knows?
