[Gllug] Lessig in UK on Monday

[Richard Jones]

This is from NTK this week.  By coincidence I'll be around this area
on Monday.  Is anyone else going?

          LARRY "dear, *dear* Larry" LESSIG launches the UK versions of 
          the famed Creative Commons licenses, and - who knows? - 
          perhaps even some sort of practical applications for them, at 
          University College London's Edward Lewis Theatre this coming 
          Monday lunchtime (12noon-2pm Mon 2004-10-04, Windeyer 
          Building, 46 Cleveland Street, London W1, entrance free, but 
          please RSVP in advance to I.Brown at cs.ucl.ac.uk with "Creative 
          Commons UK" as the subject line). We don't know how long the 
          Professor is in the country, but we kind of suspect he might 
          also enjoy getting his teeth into next weekend's FIPR 
          COPYRIGHT IN EUROPE WORKSHOP ("starts Sat lunchtime and 
          finishes Sun lunchtime", 2004-10-09/10, Computer Laboratory, 
          University of Cambridge, 15 JJ Thomson Avenue, Cambridge CB3, 
          looks free but email them to check), where the Foundation for 
          Information Policy Research will be considering responses to 
          "the EU legal framework in the field of copyright and related 
          rights", possibly along the lines of why increased legal 
          protection of "intellectual property" might actually be bad, 
          not good, like some people seem to think.
