If they start distributing these copies in mass quantities, for money or free, that's publishing and that's an infringement. Then it's up to me or my publisher to decide if it's worth smacking 'em down.
Does that just apply to your new re-write, and anything else you might have written? Only with the one that I downloaded you give people the right to distribute it as they see fit, with no real restrictions at all other than making it into a real book or making a film of it.
