>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> Hi all and Haggen,
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> The Australian booklet is fine but as my view, the style maybe not be
>>>>>>> very
>>>>>>> attractive to me. Will Matthew re-design it and if it is possible or
>>>>>>> allowable to do so coz it is come from Creative Commons Australian?
>>>>>>> And, is
>>>>>>> it a necessary to print a Australian booklet with 60 page full 
>>>>>>> version?
>>>>>>> I
>>>>>>> mean, to the environment and I guess, I guess the booklet should give 
>>>>>>> a
>>>>>>> short and clear and the main idea to the audience about Creative
>>>>>>> Commons and
>>>>>>> the Case Studies and if they are really interested in it, they could
>>>>>>> visit
>>>>>>> CCHK website to download a full version and get more further
>>>>>>> information.
>>>>>>
>>>>>> I have a discussion with Matthew just before and we will do some
>>>>>> adjustment. I am also asking the Creative Commons Australia for the
>>>>>> raw files. In terms of re-design, I am not sure if Matthew can afford
>>>>>> the time. See if we can come to a compromise.
>>>>>>
>>>>>>> In addition,
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> 1) How is the RTHK CC survey running? I mean the analysis of the
>>>>>>> survey.
>>>>>>> Still waiting the PR department to finish the questionnaire analysis?
>>>>>>
>>>>>> It is up to RTHK to tell us the update.
>>>>>>
>>>>>>> 2) How is the LS training for teachers mentioned before?
>>>>>>
>>>>>> I attended the "Liberal Studies Assessment and Media" event on 23th
>>>>>> May (http://www.isoc-hk.org/media-literacy/web.html) and there was a
>>>>>> good discussion on copyright. I also had the chance to introduce CC to
>>>>>> the audience and they were also very interested. I am co-ordinating
>>>>>> with one of the co-organiser, Hong Kong Media Education Resources
>>>>>> Web, to see if we can organise another talk on copyright ASAP.
>>>>>>
>>>>>>> and media attention also.
>>>>>>
>>>>>> The original plan was to generate media attention so that there will
>>>>>> be more positive result for the survey. When I talked to our inhouse
>>>>>> media specialist, she pointed out that CC may not be an issue with
>>>>>> urgency. The articles submitted may not be printed on time before the
>>>>>> survey ended.
>>>>>>
>>>>>> On the other hand, I am building a media list so that we can be better
>>>>>> prepared next time.
>>>>>>
>>>>>>> 3) And will there are any plan to organize a talk in secondary school
>>>>>>> or
>>>>>>> university to the students in the future?
>>>>>>
>>>>>> No yet. But I plan to deliver some of the booklets in person and hear
>>>>>> from friends from different University on how we can better serve and
>>>>>> support them.
>>>>>>
>>>>>>> 4) At last but not the least, as Oiwan mentioned, how is the volunteer
>>>>>>> register system and legco monitor?
>>>>>>
>>>>>> Yes I did miss out on the volunteer register system. I will follow up.
>>>>>>
>>>>>> I plan to organise the legco watch after 64, as most who care about
