Hi All,

After searching promotion materials from English speaking
jurisdictions: Australia, Canada, UK, South Africa and India, I found
that the booklet "Asia and the Commons Case Studies 2008" may be
suitable. http://creativecommons.org.au/asiaandthecommons  It is a
full-colour 60-page booklet with 16 case studies of CC projects in
Asia and beyond. The shortcomings of this booklet is that there is no
beginner level introduction of CC and the reader is assumed to have
some former understanding. Also, we may not be able to print many
copies of this booklet.

I would like to get some feedback from the community these two
promotion materials: "Asia and the Commons Case Studies 2008" and
former suggestion, "Encouraging the ecology of creativity from CCi

Thanks and Regards,

Haggen
