Being an outsider (like 99.9% of the rest of us here) I don't have a clue what was written into the licensing agreement with SAAC.

What typically happens to licensed goods (clothing, toys, etc.) when the contract expires? Anyone out there been in this type of agreement?

If I lent some corporate records to someone to facilitate research, I would think that there would be a clause in there giving me some rights to the results of that research (at least as to publishing if not ownership of the results), and certainly the right to collect the original documents back. Anyone?

I would also guess that regardless of how the agreement was written, it will probably come down to how much either party wants to spend in legal costs to defend their position (their interpretation of the contract). SAAC seems to have fired the next round by asking for donations to their legal fund...
