* 22 January 2008 - The roadmap for the revival of IMSLP has been set. Like all good things, this may take a while, but we will persevere. The revival of IMSLP involves the incorporation of a non-profit IMSLP Foundation (exact name not decided yet, though we do have one in mind; do feel free to suggest one if you think of any) in the US. Because of this, help on the following points would be much welcome:
1. Files public domain in Canada but not the US do not need to be removed; however, accurate tagging of US public domain status is crucial. This especially goes for files tagged "Verified" or "Checked" prior to the splitting of the copyright tag into three jurisdictions; these files are currently tagged V/U/U (Verified/Unknown/Unknown) or C/U/U by default.
2. I welcome any and all help with either non-profit incorporation (in the US and Canada) or non-profit corporate maintenance (taxes, accounting, etc) offered, or even just any suggestions or words of wisdom (preferably from prior experience). Any help with obtaining charity status is also very welcome.
* In other news, I finally won the battle with my laptop (who wants to retire), and will be uploading IMSLP v0.7 soon, most notably with the newly designed multi-file template Smile Had finished it before Christmas, but never got a chance to upload it.
You've left us in the dark about what is currently going on and I think IMSLP was entirely taken down for the attention than for legal reasons.
I can assure you, this was not the case.
The reason you are left slightly in the dark is because we do not want to say something, then a week later have to eat our words. We ourselves are not entirely sure (we are more-so now however) of the situation. As soon as something becomes concrete we tell you. As with the top quote from earlier in this thread.
It seems that you're just pronging IMSLP's return since nothing more than the translation of the opening letters has been accomplished.
Again, as in the top quote, more has been accomplished.
