Information rights management is important for those who want it, but it is important that it be open. I met someone recently at a Creative Commons party that was working on open privacy. I'll try to get the card back from my office neighbor and send the info to this list. In Christensen's terms, info rights management is part of moving up market. As a disruptive technology improves, it needs to prepare for the day when there will come "competitive battles" in which the disruptive technology moves out of the separate value network in which it was nurtured to attack the incumbent's weakening value network. People want DRM, so we need to eventually be able to provide it to them, but make it OPEN. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
