That, along with Henry's comments, really does make it seem like the 
most sucky system ever - what I'd half expect from laws of course.

Either we'll have to look to propose something for next year (I presume 
it runs yearly) somehow if anyone is interested, else the Americans on 
this list might be having legal troubles with some of their efforts, or 
just, well, let it all lapse!

No idea about how to coordinate it however. I'm not American, good luck 
letting a UK citizen into the USA law books and procedures ;) It'd have 
to be sorted, I guess, between the digital archives, libraries and the 
Library of Congress.
