@brianlfrye Absolutely. It is especially embarrassing when the edits introduce a grammatical error that wasn’t in the original manuscript and wasn’t in the “final” redline either.

@emilysbremer I think the free and open-source Linux Libertine looks great on paper (if only middling on screen). Source Serif Pro is also growing on me.

Agree 100%! The Patent Act has expressly allowed inventors to place inventions in the public domain for many years, and it is time the Copyright Act gave authors the same right.

Congratulations to Shira Perlmutter on her appointment as the new Register of Copyrights and director of the @CopyrightOffice. Perlmutter’s record gives us confidence that she will bring an open-minded and balanced approach to her new role.
