Title: RE: [Cc-hk] Introducing Eric Eldred

Hi Yahong, Rebecca and everyone,

Too bad that I cannot come tomorrow as I can't leave work too early to come to HKU. I am very glad to see the seed of CC in HK is growing.

Let me introduce myself. I am the IP Manager of ASTRI (http://www.astri.org ), a Hong Kong government funded research organization. I have the chance to work with many leading IP lawyers and consumer electronics OEM/ODM in HK. Although I do not believe commercial lawyers here will openly support CC, they may be able to contribute privately. Some told me personally that they are angry at the current copyright consultation document, which may impose many unjust regulations.

I believe that the most urgent need is to adopt CC license for HK use. This requires copyright law expertise, which Yahong can definitely contribute a lot. Although I am not a lawyer, I received some trainings in law and will try to contribute any way I can.

Thanks

Kenneth
