Hi all,

I had a go at synthesising my draft and Rufus' comments:

http://www.openrightsgroup.org/orgwiki/index.php/Ofcom_PSP_Consultation_March_2007#Draft_Response

Great work Saul.

At Rufus' suggestion I removed the p2p bit and the semweb bit - perhaps
these are the kinds of projects the psp we call for could support -
rather than core properties of the psp itself. This makes it even

Yes I think it would be cool if they did do that but I think at this stage it would be taking us a bit far off-topic.

simpler and shorter - which I like.

I've added a scenarios section which tries to convert our general suggestions into a couple of concrete examples. Also do we need a definition of open content/open data somewhere -- perhaps as a postscript (given that their consultation site is called open media network I'm concerned their meaning of open is much more limited than ours).

However, I haven't had time to add Tim and Martin's ideas - perhaps
you'd have time to do this Tim? I'm afraid I'm under the gun for the
next few weeks so won't have a chance.

Also I remember Becky Hogge saying she could do some work on this. I
think it still needs some development - and then some promotion to get
lots of good signatories.

Given time constraints I think we will have to keep this fairly restricted (though we could do a later call via boingboing which would add weight)

Current potential signatories:

  * Open Knowledge Foundation
  * Free Culture UK
  * Open Rights Group (need to confirm)
  * Knowledge Ecology International (was cptech) -- need to contact
  * ? other suggestions

If we want individual signatories we could put this out to various lists though I am wary of doing this given time limit (and need to corral the responses).
