[okfn-discuss] a survey about copyright in the digital age: finally the results!

Tue Sep 4 08:49:11 UTC 2012

Maybe you all need a recap of the previous episodes.
My name is Simone Aliprandi and I am an Italian independent researcher
working in the intellectual property field. On February 1, 2011 I
announced on the web (via several mailing-lists and blog posts) the
opening of a survey about some sociological issues related to
copyright in the digital age. It was an online questionnaire that I
realized as a part of my PhD research. Since that initial announcement
I have always “solemnly” promised that all the results would be
released with an “open approach”. Now my PhD program has closed, my
thesis has been defended, and the data has been adequately processed
and commented; so it is the moment to publish them, using open content
licenses, both on the web and in open access journals.
I realized a small website where you can browse a general presentation
of the survey and its most interesting results. The website is a sort
of "blog" and you can leave your comments and suggestion directly in
its pages. All your comments and suggestions will be very very
precious, since I am thinking about re-proposing the survey in the
future.
A few papers and articles based on the data will come soon and will be
added to the "related articles" page of the website.
Obviously, feel free to share this announce wherever you want.
