Hi everybody. What are the chances we can meet on July 30th or 31st? I need to be in Taipei by late evening on the 31st in order to make the Wikimedia advisory board meeting, which starts on the morning of Aug. 1st. But I am otherwise very flexible about timing on the 30th and 31st. Thanks.Rebecca   On Jun 24, 2007, at 2:52 AM, Jon Phillips wrote:

Hello everybody. Just thought I would revive this thread. Shall we

organize a meeting for July or August?

Rebecca

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?

confirm a date when he is in HK?

flexible to accomodate.

Dear Yahong,

Shall we go by July 15 as per suggested?

As far as we could tell, based on postings to this

list,

1) we've two legal scholarsMs. Yahong Li (HKU) and

Rebecca Ong

2) several individuals associated with 'academic'
