Crossposting aside , the copyright violation in the opening post (which you
repeated in your quoting) I consider poor form. A short excerpt and the link
would have been preferable.

Regarding the crossposting , I wouldn't say it's necessarily against etiquette
but presents a few problems for responders : first , some newsservers place
restrictions on how many newsgroups you can crosspost so crossposting to 4
means that a responder will have to verify that their chosen server allows
this. Perhaps they know already without looking it up or perhaps they will
have to spend time to look it up.

The other issue is that if one is not familiar with what's on topic on some
of the crossposted groups , it creates a dilemma whether they should simply
remove the crossposting or spend time to visit the groups to become familiar
and see if their response would be on topic.

I'm only lightly familiar with  comp.infosystems.gemini ,
comp.infosystems.gopher , comp.infosystems.www.misc , I don't want to spend
the time right now to become more familiar so I only reply on  comp.misc
with which I am familiar.
