[drn-discuss] [Fwd: [A2k] Preliminary Agenda for A2k London]

Wed Apr 27 12:22:59 PDT 2005

I believe it is taking place at the Queen Mary Intellectual Property 
Research Institute in London (http://www.qmipri.org/). I don't know 
whether it is formally 'open' but I am pretty certain that they aren't 
going to stop people who turn up from attending and I intend to go.

The proposed access to knowledge (a2k) treaty is a real chance to get a 
positive agenda for 'our' side in this debate which is too often 
dominated by the endless calls for more and stronger IP.

Regards,

Rufus
