copying content from a past presentation

[Murray McAllister]

Hi,

I made a very small start on the DNS section. Is it okay if I
copy+paste text from a presentation/talk I did, or is that now
allowed?

Thanks,

Murray.

If it's your original content, it's allowed. Otherwise get written 
permission.

Sure, I didn't copy and paste it. However, when I wrote it I did
research from many areas, but now it is common knowledege. Does that
mean I still have to get permission or include references?

Thanks,

Murray.

No. Facts are not copyrightable. Specific expressions of those facts 
are. If any material has been used substantially, adding a reference or 
giving some credit would be appropriate.
