Dear all!

Welcome to the discussion of the Creative Commons license for Hong  
Kong! You will find the draft including some comments of the  
substantial legal changes here: http://creativecommons.org/ 
international/hk/

I would like to take this opportunity and thank Dr. Yahong Li, Alice  
Lee (Legal Project Leads) and Rebecca MacKinnon (Public Project Lead)  
for their wonderful work and effort on this project.

Please feel free to review, comment, and make suggestions to things  
that will help the licenses comply with Hong Kong law. The role of  
the discussion is to start the public debate and to make the least  
amount of changes necessary to bring the license into accord with  
Hong Kong law. Also, please feel free to ask general questions about  
the Creative Commons licenses in the cc-mailing list: http:// 
lists.ibiblio.org/mailman/listinfo/cc-licenses

Part of the fun of this discussion will be, I hope, that we get to  
compare the quirks and eccentricities of our respective nations'  
copyright laws.

We expect the archived discussions to serve as a history of this  
experience. That way, your input will continue be useful to anyone  
from any country even after the discussion for Hong Kong is completed.

I am very much looking forward to a fruitful and open discussion!

Thank you very much.

All the best,

Catharina
