[Judith R Cohen <judithc...>]

hi, I'm glad the issue was resolved so quickly and pleasantly and am not 
surprised at Flory's
generous reaction, which is typical of her.
But I AM surprised at the discussion of how much was new material. Clearly, it 
was BASED on the
idea of Flory's song and the title she gave it, and form the line "traditional" 
on the web site
extract, and form Josh's own comment that they didn't know it was by Flory at 
first (many people
don't know this: a tribute to Flory's song-writing and knowledge of her 
tradition). That means
she is entitled to the royalties anyway. If she chooses to waive this right, 
that's fine, they
should simply (as I understand things) automatically go to her anyway. (A 
little extra for
presents for the grandchildren is always nice and the Ocho Kandelikas season 
itself is around
the corner!) Judith
