Thanks.
For a while I was the regional photographer for my employer. Ir was
always my understanding that since I was being paid by them and they
were covering all my costs the photos I took were theirs to do with as
they pleased. We had no formal contract but the job description I
agreed to included "other duties as assigned."

I've read some of it ( it's quite long ) and my take on the gist of it
is
that a publication that make and electronic copy of its own publication
that is electronically identical to the original ( contains the
complete
context, allows the user / viewer to page back and forth etc. ) is
completely within the current copyright law. A publisher can make
as many copies of the original work ( here : Magazine issue ) as
desired
unless there is some limitation in the original contract with one or
more
of the contributors.
This decision merely clarifies that this rule applies to electronic
copies as well.
Cheers,
James
