Hi, I have developed a Google Chrome Web App that is currently in the Chrome Web Store here, but I only have the standard works that I got from the Mormon Documentation Project. According the them, the files I got are in the public domain. However, I would like to add footnotes, chapter headings, photographs, maps, the Bible Dictionary, index, Topical Guide, etc. It would seem that these are copyrighted by the Church. I have looked at the Terms of Use page on lds.org and printed out the Copyright Request Form, but it seems that I have no way of getting an easily machine readable format to get the data from.
I would like some help on:
Is this copyright request form the right thing for getting permission and
Is there a way I can get the actual digital content, other then writing a program to rip it from the HTML on the website. (Which I am capable of if I need to.)
Also, I am leaving on my mission in March and wanted to know if someone (or the Church) wanted to take over my project while I am gone.
Thank you for any help you can give.
