Cc-hk mailing list

["Jack Qiu" <jacklqiu AT gmail.com>]

I'm posting this again since the last one bounced from the cc-hk list..

=======
Thank you, Yahong, and all members of the legal team -- Best of luck
for your important work, and I look forward to seeing your discussion
draft soon!

As promised at the workshop, I'm extending
invitation from our conference "Information Technology and Social
Responsibility" to all fans of CC-HK. Please see the conference website
at : http://www.com.cuhk.edu.hk/itsr/participants.htm

Registration
is free. You may do it online (preferably) or call Li Na our conference
secretary. Members of this group should be most interested in Session 3
in the pm of Dec.17 about the digital commons and intellectual property
politics. When leaders of the CC-China Mainland team will present, and
Rebecca will be our discussant. Others including Charles and myself
will also talk.

If you like, we may even have an informal dinner and exchange session
members of CC-China Mainland, including Wang Chunyan from Renmin U,
whom I just learned was Yahong's former classmate. Again, how small the
world is! And I hope to see everyone at this event.

Best,
Jack

A few more words on the legal process... Our two student RAs, Rob and Jerry, had worked extremely hard in the past few months.  They identified all important issues and differences in concepts by carefully studying and comparing the standard CC licence, HK copyright law, and licences of several jurisdictions such as UK, Australia, US and mainland China.  These issues and concepts in turn were thoroughly discussed and debated during our team meeting last week.  we are now working on finalizing the draft.  Hopefully we will make it available by the end of the year for public comment after we get CC international's comments.  Alice and I are working closely on making sure that the licence is in compliance with HK copyright law and the drafting process is right on track. 

 

Thanks for your patience!

 

Best,

 

Yahong
