[free-sklyarov] NINCH Copyright Town Meeting in NYC (fwd) [Sept. 24]

[Wendy Seltzer]

This just came across the CNI-copyright list -- it might be an opportunity
for some public discussion of the problems with anticircumvention.

Jaszi has been among those attempting to maintain reason in the updating
of copyright law.
