Yes the statement is excellent "big tent" activism. Anyone who wants
copyright reform is supported by it and can support it. If it mentioned
greater specifics then 14-year-term reformers, life-plus-50 reformers,
registrationists, abolitionists, etc. would all have something to take
issue with and would be undermined in some way by it.
