Copyright and journals is entirely relevant to this Forum, whose topic
is the freeing of the refereed research literature online. (I am not
sure what made you think it was not relevant.)

Again, I am not sure what you mean here. I am the moderator of the
Forum, but I am also a contributor. As contributor, I express my
viewpoint, just as other contributors express theirs. Are you
construing a differing viewpoint as a lecture? (Is that then
reciprocal?)
By way of clarification: There is a "fair use" issue for text book
materials, for teaching purposes. That is royalty-based material, not
author give-away, as refereed research is. That is why it is so
important not to conflate the two.

I would be interested to hear your viewpoint about that.
