Might be sensible to read the article completely:

Actually I doubt that your article was the type of article Jem meant. But
certainly you will find a way to prove that a newsgroup is no forum or
that we should discuss the article without reading it or something in that
way...

I found the article very useful, TNX!

I think nobody is questioning the usefullness of the article. It is an
extremely usefull article and very well written. Unfortunatly there are
laws that prohibit copying and pating copyright material and dumping
them in a newsgroup or anywhere else.

I wish it was different.

Except the the author released that article under a Creative Commons
license that allows for full copying with attribution, with no derivative
works and no commercial use of the article allowed. So it's perfectly ok
to copy this article to this newsgroup or anywhere else as long the
terms of the license is followed. The only thing Will should have
done was to include the CC license blurb with the article.
