WIPO Copyright Treaty/Talk

Damian Yerrick added:

However, the treaty itself did not require any copyright term extension beyond the Berne Convention's life-plus-50 term.

True, but why mention this here? There is an infinite number of other things that the treaty didn't require either, why single out this particular one? If its a common misconception, I'd note it as such; otherwise I'd delete this. -- SJK

I added that because Congress passed the Sonny Bono Act and the DMCA one day apart, both by unaccountable [voice vote]?, so it may appear that both acts implemented the same treaty.
