Hi

My first post to the list, so a brief introduction:
I'm a lecturer in the Department of Statistics at Auckland University
and my research is mostly involved with an open source statistical
software project called R. I have joined this list for two reasons:
(i) I'm generally interested in the Creative Commons and the "Free
Culture" movement and (ii) I am negotiating with a publisher regarding a
book idea and I want to retain copyright and release an electronic
version under a Creative Commons licence. So I'm interested and excited
to see people working to set up an NZ port of CC.

My question for today is this:
Is there any plan to "port" the CC Public Domain Dedication mechanism to
NZ? (or is that a strictly US-only concept?)

Thanks for any info and thanks for all the work being put into the CC port.

Paul
