Hi everybody. What are the chances we can meet on

30th and 31st. Thanks.Rebecca On Jun 24, 2007, at 2:52

Hello everybody. Just thought I would revive

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?

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?

As far as we could tell, based

Yahong Li (HKU)

As Jon, who was at the first

both
