Hi,

You have certainly noticed that TLC offers free online PDF building instructions
downloads. In fact, TLC has not, AFAIK, officially announced or publicized this.

Until now, only old (more than 3 years old) BIs were available for donwloading,
for example through Peeron. Now, even the latest are (1)(2).

What makes TLC change their mind ? (3 years was an incredibly high delay)

Will that change the way TLC deals copyrights with Peeron/PICSL ?

(1) Check http://www.br-eng.info/words/?page_id=29

(2) Some BIs have been released before corresponding sets reached the shelves:
The IR trains BIs are available, at least from Europe :
http://www.freelug.org/article.php3?id_article=498

[2] gets a page that shows links to all the instructions but the links lead to
"Can Not Find Page". I am in the USA.
