   Common for all countries that I know of is the threshold of originality 
demand. You cannot just scribble down some text on a napkin and claim 
copyright.

   In the FTS-1 case it's obvious, even by the "author's" own admission -- in 
the two last sections (K and L) -- that almost nothing in the 
document is Randy's own work, it's just a collection of other people's work. No 
originality what so ever...
