Google Book Settlement delay

From Ryan Singel for Wired:

Google’s attempt to build the digital library of the future was slowed down significantly Tuesday, as the judge overseeing a landmark court settlement between the search giant and all U.S. copyright holders gave authors four more months to decide whether to join, fight or opt-out of the deal.

There's more background about the Google Book Search Settlement, including Guild advice to UK writers, on the Guild website.
