- I was wondering if anyone out there knows a standard
- format for citing the comp.compression FAQ or any FAQ for
- that matter. Specifically, I do not know anything about the
- copyright status of postings to news groups on USENET.
- I am writing my masters thesis on Ultrasound Image Compression
- and will be making reference to this group's FAQ in the document.
-
- I suppose what I am wondering is should the FAQ be treated
- as an unpublished work whose editor or author is Jean-loup
- Gailly? And should the modification date be cited? The
- bibliographic database I am using is BibTeX, if that makes
- any difference.
-
- Thanks for the help,
- Susan
