You're right, it doesn't, however, you've never heard of the Berne Convention 
then (of which all countries represented in this echo are members of)?

From the Wikipedia article about the Berne Convention:

"Since almost all nations are members of the World Trade Organization, the 
Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights requires 
non-members to accept almost all of the conditions of the Berne Convention."

So pretty much, yes, there's common copyright law that applies in each 
signatory state, as well as further refinements in each state.

So, yes, if Mr. Jennings wanted to push the issue, he could enforce both his 
copyright and trademark.

But to avoid all of that, one could put what they publish under one of the 
many Creative Commons licenses.

Later,
Sean
