Glen, is that really called for? I realize that emotions have run high on both sides of this argument and that you and I are on opposite sides when it comes to EME, but I expected a little better from you. Some of us consider this a serious issue and would like to treat it as such.

I'm afraid I can't make it either. But I'm looking forward to the follow-up
workshop on "EME, HTML5, and Global Warming". Surely with all of the hot air
produced on this subject, not only the edifice of Western Legal Thought, but
also the Polar Ice Caps are sorely threatened by these dire technological
portents.
Cheers,
Glenn

      Forgiveness retrospectively begged for cross-posting this. The

      to pass on this invitation onto interested parties within the

      Hopefully I've hit some reasonable subset of that with this cc:
      list.

      For some context on Andersdotter's current thinking on EME, you
      can see:

      Dear all,

      I would like to invite you to a panel discussion about encrypted
      media
      extensions in HTML5, a fundamental browser standard. This
      invitation was
      sent out a couple of days ago, but because of the difficulties
      in
      forwarding posters and some last minute cancellations a
      plain-text
      version of the invitation follow.

      Official name:*Technology making law*
      Venue: European Parliament, PHS 1 C 047
      Time: October 15th, 11:00-13:00

      The issues which will be discussed are
      - What is the consequence of this inclusion on innovation on the
      Internet?
      - Where is the difference between technology and law? Should
      technology
      make law or do legislators make law?
      - What are the consequences of introduction of EME in HTML5 on
      the
      existing European legal framework for copyright and
      broadcasting?
      - Are there security problems with a "black box" in the browser.

      If you wish to participate in this event you can contact Jan
      Louzeek at
      [email protected] who will order the
      badges for
      you on Tuesday in order to get inside of the parliament
      building. The
      event will additionally be streamed and recorded and its
      availability
      will be notified at the @exile6e twitter account
      (https://twitter.com/exile6e
<https://webmail.europarl.europa.eu/OWA/redir.aspx?C=buaTmGO1-0WsGpGaFD70tp

      In order to get to the parliament you need to provide following
      information: Full name, your ID number and your date of birth.

      You are all welcome and I'll be looking forward to see you in
      our
      interesting debate!

      best,

      Jan Louzek
