There of course is a simple solution and that is to let anyone that

are simple and yet it would benefit IBM and SHARE members alike. The
first is that so duplicate requirements might not be submitted(or at
least minimized), this would reduce IBM's man power spent working on
responding and implementing and planning of requirements. The third
or so is that people could see if their requirement has been
submitted already so duplicates should be cut down. The fourth is
that Users can see and request (through SHARE) that IBM to re-
prioritize any outstanding requirements.

Sorry, Ed, but (while that may explain more about why you want the
requirements more visible) it says nothing, as far as I can see, that
justifies considering usage of copyright.

Because for some reason (as stated elsewhere) that IBM considers requirements their property and this is the only way to stop that idea.
