Liberated public domain government docs surfacing online
Carl sez, "You carried a post a month ago about a mirror of NTIS.GOV we created here at public.resource.org, the idea being that people can buy materials, we'll buy them from the government, and the information goes back into the public domain. I'm pleased to report that our first two purchases have now been fully completed and you can view the results on-line. Greg Elin of Washington, D.C. paid for a PTO film about minority inventors, and Joseph Kulhavy of Texas paid for reenactments of Marbury v. Madison and McCulloch v. Maryland. There's a detailed teacher's guide, and the full-res mpeg2 files are on-line so you can just download and burn to DVD."
