There's an easier way to solve this......Since there's a limited number
of posts that Juanita can use anyway, if she sees something that
interests her, have her contact the person who posted it and have them
send a copy directly to her, with permission to publish.

That way it doesn't go thru Rootsweb and they have no claim on it, even
if it's identical to something they have.

Jean,
I doubt that Rootsweb would say anything unless someone complained too
them. It's just a sticky issue and nobody wants to get anyone mad at
them. I think, if they want to publish then they should get permission
from the one who submitted the message they're interested in. I know
there is great information on this site and I think it should be
published, but I'm not the person submitting the great stuff.
