I'm at the Hacker's Conference. I had lunch with Brewster Kahle yesterday. I cannot repeat what is said at the conference on this list, but interesting stuff is happening. If some of you want to help do some hard work for better library public access, lets talk after a PLUG meeting. Right now, Brad Templeton of EFF is telling us cool things about last year's many legal battles. Let's hope we can find a solution before we ask their lawyers for help.
