Fri Apr 18 18:13:41 UTC 2008

Hi,

Paolo D'Iorio, of the Discovery Project [1] has just emailed me to let 
me know he's going to be speaking in Oxford on Monday and Tuesday at an 
event called 'Open Scholarly Communities on the Web: Legal, Social and 
Economic Framework':

I will definitely be going, and thought this might be of interest to 
others on the list. (It would be great to meet in the evening if any of 
you were around!)

Blurb is attached below.

Warm regards,

Jonathan
