Personally, I think that Creative Commons Europe should *not* be
actively involved with EDRI or similar "digital rights" advocacy
groups beyond working with them to broaden the acceptance for
CC and CC licensing.
To be sure, I actually agree! When I said "it would be useful for CC to engage in some way with EDRI" I meant interact with them and possibly collaborate on specific initiatives related with licensing. For instance, I mentioned the open (government) data domain, where I think we can cooperate to support government in their open data choices (which are also political) and related licensing consequences.
In a similar way, we already cooperate with Wikimedia or other groups. And, at the same time, we interact with national collecting societies or associations of authors and editors... all these people are relevant stakeholder in the culture/creativity/copyright domain and we should somehow interact with them.

So, read my feedback as: "go on talking with them, they are relevant stakeholder in the creative commons [without capital letters] domain".

This does not mean that CC should be member of EDRI, to be explicit. Actually I took as granted that this was not going to happen, considering the current policy of CC in similar situations.

Best,

Federico
