Putting the link to the article or instructions in a post - perfectly acceptable.

It's funny because on another IB site (owners of the QB), the moderators are all over that issue- if someone reposts an article from somewhere else, it immediately gets changed to a link. I think it permissible to repost the first few sentences but not the entire content.

And again, I know that in an era when everything is so immediately available it seems that it's there for the taking, it isn't.

(I really didn't mean to highjack your thread. ;-) )

I'm reading with interest as this topic never ceases to end. But....isn't this a lady just giving out her pattern to anyone who reads her blog? That happens all over in American's blogs? So what would the difference be other than having to translate it into English?

Also MTS, what is the other IB site you are referring to that is owned by QB? TIA :-D
