Copyright goes Public Domain ?

CK - Washington.   This petition to Congress is great reading for IP freaks and anybody with an interest in conserving very old copyright-protected works.

The petitioners would like to see mummyfied works preserved and hope that returning them to the public domain will help interested parties do that.

Obviously, this change would have effects on copyright exploiters that rely on their constitutional right to raise revenue from the works of the dead.
