Berkman Center October 1, 2000 at 7:00 p.m. EDT "The Future of Intellectual Property on the Internet: A Debate" Jack Valenti and renowned cyberlaw expert Lawrence Lessig. Ames Courtroom, Austin Hall, Harvard Law School, Cambridge and online at http://cyber.law.harvard.edu/futureofip> Then on Monday, the Berkman Center and Internet Democracy Project will host the seven North-American candidates for At-Large election to the ICANN board for an informal dialogue followed by a formal candidate debate. .................................................................. The only matters that need to be debated by these people are: 1) Why, when ICANN's bylaws call for 50% of its Board to be At-large directors, only 5 out 18 directors are being elected; 2) How persons nominated by the ICANN Nominating Committee, appointed by the existing Board, can represent At-large users; 3) Why the Berkman Center is providing a forum for an illegal organization like ICANN.
