Hi all

Below is a draft email for everyone to circulate to their contacts with a save the date and the call for papers for the Global Summit.

Note that the deadline for submission of papers has been pushed back to 24 May - after some feedback, we decided to give people more time.

Please send this around as far as you can go - we don't want people to miss out because they didn't hear about the event.

Creative Commons Global Summit - Save the Date and Call for Papers 

The Creative Commons Global Summit 2013, the bi-annual gathering of CC friends and family, will officially be held in Buenos Aires from 21-24 August, co-hosted by our local Creative Commons affiliates, Fundación Vía Libre and Wikimedia Argentina.

Save the date if you're interested in joining global leaders to learn about the latest developments in the commons worldwide, discuss strategies to strengthen Creative Commons and its community, or find out about local and international projects that use Creative Commons licenses. Registration will be opening later this month.

In the meantime, we are proud to launch the call for papers for the Summit. We encourage anyone with something interesting to say about the past, present or future of the commons to apply - it’s a great place to meet and present your ideas to the open community. A Programming Committee consisting of members of the CC community will make the final decision on the program. Most importantly, this will be CC's first ever Summit with a dedicated Spanish-language program.

You have until 24 May to submit a session for the Summit. Submission forms and a more detailed explanation of the process can be found on our Global Summit wiki at http://wiki.creativecommons.org/Global_Summit_2013/Call_for_Papers.
