 Hi all,
 
 Just a reminder that nominations for the 2014 Wikimedia Australia committee 
 election is open. If you are interested in serving on the committee, you 
 have until 11:59pm AEDST, November 16 to put your name forward. Two people 
 (a nominator and a seconder) need to email a nomination to the Secretary 
 (secret...@wikimedia.org.au) for your name to be put forward.
 
 You have a chance to shape the direction of the chapter here, so if you've 
 thought about it, I'd encourage you to do so.
 
 Good luck!

None at this stage. I'd encourage anyone willing to run. :)

 Aloha from Hawaii!

 I'm at an Internet cafe so must be brief.
 I too would like to see us 'weigh in' on the matter of the copyright review
 and as some of you may recall I made a submission to the initial round
 myself (specifically relating to faithful reproductions of 2D PD artworks).

 I would be very happy to see WMAu to send in a 'we support what the ADA
 said' submission.

 Tell me if I can help in this matter because Trish is based at the National
 Library and I see her almost daily.

A WMAU response endorsing the ADA submissions would be good.  We
should start a draft in someone's userspace and take it from there.

Also relevant is the IP chapter of TPP which was leaked yesterday by Wikileaks

https://newmatilda.com/2013/11/14/tpp-serious-threat-australian-sovereignty

The raw text is here:

http://wikileaks.org/tpp/

Many online commentators are equating it with SOPA, etc., as it
contains many of the same provisions.
