When did using things in school or district curriculum become "commercial use"? And why is it that the people in AASL are claiming fair use covers our use when it doesn't based on their permission statement? If AASL really wanted them to be used, they would do what is being asked to ensure that they survive. Very disappointing! How do the members who volunteered their time to write the document feel about how AASL is responding? Is anyone on LM_NET among those who worked on the standards document? Kimberly A.

Utilizing them in educational workshops, student lessons, whatever, is covered by fair use. Integration into a school or district curriculum requires permission. I don't need to tell you that commercial use is a "horse of a different color."
