Hello--I hope all of you are well. My name is Sonia Katyal, and I am posting re: the suggestion of Udhay. I am a South Asian law professor who specializes in intellectual property and civil rights with a focus on new media at Fordham Law School in New York City. I am writing- first of all to say hello, and second, because I am planning a trip to India in December, specifically to Hyderabad, Bangalore, Mumbai and Delhi, and would love to meet up with cyberlaw/tech oriented folks on this list serve. Because of my background, we are particularly interested in developing a closer relationship with law students and lawyers in South Asia, and would love to bring more students to Fordham who are interested in the issues surrounding intellectual property law, civil/human rights and technology.
Anyway, I should be in India throughout December, and would welcome the opportunity to meet and speak with folks on any other intellectual property issue that might be of interest. My own scholarly work concentrates on the relationship between copyright, trademark and civil rights protections like privacy and freedom of expression, and I would be happy to chat with folks about doing workshops or talks that may be of interest to them while I am in India. A bunch of law professors in the States are really interested in developing more relationships with cyberlaw folks in South Asia, and I'd love to hear more about some of the issues facing tech folks today. Please feel free to take a look at my faculty web site at Fordham Law School (http://law.fordham.edu); you'll see that a lot of my work concentrates on cyberlaw surveillance and art law. Please feel free to contact me individually if I can be of service to you--I would really be thrilled to meet up with folks while I am there. I'm planning to go to the Information Technology and Society meeting in hyderabad in December and hope maybe some folks from this list will also be there. Finally, if you are interested, here is our web site on Fordham's one year program: http://www.llm-guide.com/university/287 thanks so much, and hope everyone is well, best, skk Sonia K.

Well let me put it crudely. If my armpit stinks, zipping up your open fly won't help. Two different issues. The fact that the Government is merely advertising "excess capacity" that exists in the private healthcare system. Non use or better use of that excess capacity will in no way help healthcare for the poor in India. However Samiron Nundy is a sensible guy, and there must be a reason for his criticism. It is likely that the Government is patting itself on the back and saying "What a good boy am I" and getting carried away by the private healthcare sector's performace and is forgetting about its duty to the rest of country. ------------------------------ Message: 2 Date: Sun, 20 Nov 2005 17:54:57 +0000 From: Rishab Aiyer Ghosh <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: [silk] "Health tourists bad for India" To: [email protected] Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii i thought it was the _previous_ govt that ran with "india shining". i guess the congress got infected.
