Ah, restricted means the following: the content is under copyright where at least some rights may be restricted from the public.  Thanks for the information about ''O store Gud'' and the lyrics.  I suppose it should go under restricted arrangements and public domain tunes (perhaps public domain melodies would be better).  Do they have to give credit to Boberg to keep the copyright?

So what does "Restricted" mean here? Under copyright? If so, I disagree in the case of "O store Gud". At most Manna/Hines may claim copyright in an arrangement. The tune is a Swedish folk tune.
