I would think PD would be dangerous for bookshare to deliver outside
the US.  The standard varies widely from country to country.  As a
recent example, George Orwell's books are PD in Australia and Canada,
but not the US.  Perhaps the US is simply the most restrictive locale
when it comes to PD.  Otherwise I would be concerned.
