    Hi everybody. What are the chances we can meet on July 30th or 31st? I need to be in Taipei by late evening on the 31st in order to make the Wikimedia advisory board meeting, which starts on the morning of Aug. 1st. But I am otherwise very flexible about timing on the 30th and 31st. Thanks.Rebecca   On Jun 24, 2007, at 2:52 AM, Jon Phillips wrote:

      Hi all, the best time for me is going to be late July, early august. I
      have to be back in SF pretty quick after wikimania.

      Is during the week okay? I'm also quite interested in meeting with
      businesses who are interested in using CC licensing. I would like to
      spend 1-2 days in Hong Kong to get CC-HK setup and then also setup some
      high level business meetings to present CC to public and privately to
      key businesses.

      What dates seem the best? July 30, 31, August 1, 2 all are open, but I
      have to be in Tapei for wikimania AUG 2-5.

      Cheers! Would it make sense to have one legal meetup to get the legal
      team squared away? And then, have a wider public meetup?

      Jon

          Perhaps early August is better as Jon can join then.Can Jon
          confirm a date when he is in HK?


          Best, Yahong

            Dear Jon,


            The important person is Yahong. I would like to pin down her diary
            first. I would be
            flexible to accomodate.


            Dear Yahong,


            Shall we go by July 15 as per suggested?


            Regards,


            Matthew

              Ok, sounds good...what dates are good for you then? Like I said,
              I can
              possibly come through early Aug. near wikimania in Taipei.

                  That sounds good. I'll be in UK then. Although, I will be in

                        As far as we could tell, based on postings to this
              list,

                        1) we've two legal scholarsMs. Yahong Li (HKU) and
              Rebecca Ong
                        (City U - kindly introduced by Kenneth)
                        2) several individuals associated with 'academic'

                        media/cultural studies departments

                        So Uta ...several potential candidates and
              institutions!;)

                        CC may have already identified both (from Jon's email
              below) --> > > >> which
                        is *fantastic* to move things forward! :)

                        Although the ligh-level process for formation was clear
              ( > > > >> http://

                        released )

                        So, with the combined experience on this list, we

                        clue to answer the 'known unknowns' !

                        As Jon, who was at the first meeting in 2006, mentioned
              both
                            Any plan to contact those candidates?

                        Ah... well they're all on the list and assumed to be >

                      Sure, but Catharina, is really the ideal person to do
              this :)

                          There is a chance that both Catharina and myself will
