This is an interesting discussion on copyright issues. Years ago, I bough a set of plans for the Otto-Langen engine, from Emmet Lenaz out of Louisiana, who produced the plans I think. I've had several folks ask for a copy as the plans no longer seem to be available and my attempts to locate Emmet were fruitless. It seems a shame to let the plans get lost to history, but I'm not comfortable violating the implied copyright.
If one cannot find the current copyright holder at what point (if ever) does it become acceptable to make copies of the plans available to others?
