development of iCommons Sweden licenses

[Mathias Klang <klang AT informatik.gu.se>]

Hej,

Mikael Pawlo har varit drivkraften bakom den svenska utvecklingen av
Creative Commons Sverige. Jag kommer att ta över som projektledare efter
honom och jag tänkte presentera mig själv.

Jag har en bakgrund i juridik och är nu på Göteborgs Universitet där jag
undervisar och forskar i datoretik, ehandel & Fri Porgramvara/open
source teori/filosofi samt arbetar som studierektor. När jag inte gör
detta försöker jag att skriva en avhandling inom effekterna på teknologi
på yttrandefrihet. Detta går långsammt eftersom jag har en tendens att
göra andra saker, jag har nyligen avslutade redigeringen av boken "Human
Rights in the Digital Age" (www.digital-rights.net).

Jag tycker att det kommer att bli mycket spännande i arbetet att skapa
en svensk version av CC lisenser.

mvh

Mathias


Nedan finns introt som jag skickade till den internationella listan.

Hi,

Mikael Pawlo has been the driving force of Creative Commons Sweden and
he has recommended that I take over the project lead. So I have now
joined the list and its time to introduce myself.

I have studied law at the universities of Göteborg, Oslo and Strathclyde
and specialised in IT law. I moved on to the Deptarment of Informatics
(Göteborg University) were I teach courses in computer ethics, ecommerce
and theory/philosophy/political economy of free sofware/open source -
besides working as Dean of Studies for the department. When not doing
any of that I am trying to write a Phd on the effects of technology on
free speech in Sweden. This work is going slowly since I keep doing
picking up other projects I find interesting (I recently completed
editing a book on Human Rights in the Digital Age
(www.digital-rights.net) and I am also a Visiting Fellow at the London
School of Economics and Political Science.

I have been very interesting in the concept of creative commons since
its launch and I am very honoured to be working for the Swedish version.
I am looking forward to working with you all.

Mathias
