I suppose, had I been on the ball, I would have also noticed: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2005/12/05/uk_intellectual_property_rights_review/ http://www.hm-treasury.gov.uk/newsroom_and_speeches/press/2005/Press_102_05.cfm Looks like the stuff BPI were batting for wrt. length of copyright on audio, but will also surely affect Free Software if we let it. We need to watch: http://www.hm-treasury.gov.uk/gowers ... as that is where the fun will begin, apparently. This is a real chance for some change in the favour of users, I think. I'm tarting this e-mail across a couple of lists, please just reply to list if you respond - thanks. Cheers, Alex. _______________________________________________ Fsfe-uk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/fsfe-uk
