Subject: [Cc-hk] informal gathering -- 10pm, Dec. 18th, this Tue

 

Dear all,

Just came back in town and figured out details for the informal gathering
with CC'ers from Mainland China and US after our IT and Social
Responsibility conference tomorrow and the day after (see conference info
below). Here're the details for this gathering: 

Time: 10pm, Dec. 18th, this Tuesday

Place: Renaissance Kowloon Hotel (formerly New World Renaissance hotel, 22
Salisbury Road, Tsimshatsui)

People: 
1. from HK: All CC-HK fans are welcome. Rebecca, Charles, myself, and other
CC-HK fans attending the conference (see link below) will probably be there.

2. from Beijing: Wang Chunyan from Renmin U and several other CC-China
Mainland members.
3. from US, mostly MIT: Hal Abelson, Jing Wang

Activity: Casual socializing and exchange of ideas, most importantly for
CC-HK fans to learn from other places where CC is already in operation 

RSVP: Please drop me an email so that I know who's coming. 

In case you come late, give me a call at 9727-1232.

Best,
Jack Qiu

Thank you, Yahong, and all members of the legal team -- Best of luck for
your important work, and I look forward to seeing your discussion draft
soon! 

As promised at the workshop, I'm extending invitation from our conference
"Information Technology and Social Responsibility" to all fans of CC-HK.
Please see the conference website at :
http://www.com.cuhk.edu.hk/itsr/participants.htm
while also see attachment for the PDF e-leaflet

Registration is free. You may do it online (preferably) or call Li Na our
conference secretary. Members of this group should be most interested in
Session 3 in the pm of Dec.17 about the digital commons and intellectual
property politics. When leaders of the CC-China Mainland team will present,
and Rebecca will be our discussant. Others including Charles and myself will
also talk.

If you like, we may even have an informal dinner and exchange session
members of CC-China Mainland, including Wang Chunyan from Renmin U, whom I
just learned was Yahong's former classmate. Again, how small the world is!
And I hope to see everyone at this event. 

Best,
Jack

A few more words on the legal process... Our two student RAs, Rob and Jerry,
had worked extremely hard in the past few months.  They identified all
important issues and differences in concepts by carefully studying and
comparing the standard CC licence, HK copyright law, and licences of several
jurisdictions such as UK, Australia, US and mainland China.  These issues
and concepts in turn were thoroughly discussed and debated during our team
meeting last week.  we are now working on finalizing the draft.  Hopefully
we will make it available by the end of the year for public comment after we
get CC international's comments.  Alice and I are working closely on making
sure that the licence is in compliance with HK copyright law and the
drafting process is right on track. 

 

Thanks for your patience!

 

Best, 

 

Yahong

on behalf of legal team
