Public Domain Enhancement Act

Public Domain Enhancement Act

"This law would require that owners of copyrighted works file a registration form and pay a $1 fee to keep the copyright in force after the first 50 years. Works which, after 50 years, have been abandoned will enter the public domain."

I would suggest we consider some possible modifications.

1. Copyleft works are exempt from re-registration requirements.

2. All works with no copyright niotice affixed are automatically copylefted instead of the current automatic all rights reserved.

all the best,
