- Why not just send email to the authors and request permission?
- If small portions are copied, then it is likely fair use.
- If the postings are to a discussion group, or bulletin board, I
would argue that they are published, like a newsletter, rather than
private like person to person correspondence. The latter may get
greater protection because of the overlay of privacy interest which
is not really present in a bulletin board posting or list posting.
