      Whoops.  Package upgrade broke some of the PHP config.  It's fixed 
now.

I'm attempting to register on anthrochat, but didn't receive the verification e-mail.  Whenever I use /nickserv resend, it just tells me to wait 300 seconds and retry.  When I retry, it gives me the same thing.  Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks.

I know that Anthrochat is open and unmoderated, but what is the copyright status of logged chats? Are they open-source/copyright-free? Are they the copyright of anyone in the chat, or is it shared jointly by everyone in the room? I have a friend who gave me a bunch of his anthrochat logs before he passed away last year, for the purpose of using them in an art piece, and I am wondering whether I have the right to do this.

Thanks!

      There are certainly no explicit copyrights on conversational text
being distributed through AnthroChat's servers.  Due to the quasi-public
nature of open channels, I doubt that anyone has any expectation of
implicit copyrights on conversational text, either.  If you were given
logs by someone who was participating in a "public" channel, those logs
were that person's to give, and I don't think anyone would be able to
make a valid copyright claim on their part of the conversation.
Granted, it probably wouldn't stop someone from trying, but I doubt
they'd be able to get very far with it.  Getting permission to use
conversational text from the person(s) involved in those conversations
would be a general courtesy, but I don't think that it's required.

      Incidentally, who passed away last year?  Ruckus?
