Certainly nothing wrong with proposing a general contract to all publishers and inviting replies. The assumption that you can go ahead without approval is monstrous. YOU apply to the copyright holder for approval to publish - THEY don't have to apply to you to stop publication.

I guess that's why the settlement has taken so long. I wouldn't be surprised if the terms change from opt-out to opt-in before the settlement is approved.
