Re: [APML] S&T's New Publishing Agreement



Hi Mike,

That's a lot of rights to grant for $50.

I would change number 1 to read:

Grant of Rights - one time, non-exclusive, specific use to be agreed upon 
by the copyright holder (you).

Any additional use should require negotiation of additional usage license fees.
