Actually, Steve Ditlea's New York Times article "'Transcopyright': a
Shareware-Style Web Use Doctrine" (see the latest Xanadu Bibliography at
http://xanadu.com.au/xanadu/bibliography.html) was probably the first
transpublication, but since it is restricted to account holders yours
may still be the first publically accessible transpublication.
