With the attempts by Warner Bros. to copyright everything connected
with Harry Potter, one wonders whether the WB-lawyers might target HP-
fanfic at some point. Probably not, since nothing is actually being
published. But in the near-future, I suspect we will not have as
sharp a distinction between hard/soft cover publishing and web
publishing. Then, things could get interesting...
A possible glimpse in this potential imbroglio:
