The Middle Ages focused obsessively on the old; our era is totally absorbed with the new. In medio stat virtus. In this short note, I advocate a strategy that blends copyright and copyleft for disseminating research results in the sciences. I argue that such a blend may be beneficial in fields such as mathematics and computer science, that it may facilitate the evolution and emergence of improved problem descriptions, whilst at the same time preserving author's rights, and easing researchers' work.
