Thanks, Henrik.

To all: mine was not a rhetorical question.
I am really interested in understanding whether what
we are doing is the best course of action, particularly
when confronted with threats such as ACTA.

Thanks, best,

juan carlos

I always make sure to participate in this kind of activities as an individual, and often have to make sure organizers understand the difference. I think it is important we speak out against ACTA, like Larry recently did - http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/03/25/AR2010032502403.html (and so did I - http://www.boingboing.net/2010/03/02/danish-activists-dem.html) - but we cannot do so on behalf of Creative Commons.

I see that our good friends from CC Spain participate

What do you all think of taking explicitly part in such
kind of advocacy activities  as "CC X"?

So far in Italy (and I am not at all saying that ours is
the wisest choice!) we have been extremely reluctant
to take any public stand unless the issue at the
hand regarded explicitly CC licenses or CC works.
We have always presented ourselves as
"the Italian CC working group", not an association,
and certainly not an association
promoting free culture in a wide sense.

If we want to do that, we do it without using the CC "hat".

What is your take?
How do you behave in your own country?

I am, of course, raising the issue not to single out in any way
CC Spain (hi Ignasi! great work!), but to understand more
how we collectively behave across Europe

Best,

juan carlos
