Hello everyone, in fact, there are fresh news on the conference front, I just got an email a couple of days ago that the conference can be held at Stanford in early August. The dates that were given to me were Aug 6-8, but need to double check that first as it was initially planned to have it on a weekend, Sunday included, but Aug 6-8 is Thu- Sat. In any case, this took a while because it required the coordination of a few parties, mostly people at the Stanford Center for Internet and Society who will provide some logistic support and Lessig himself who wanted to make sure he has time to attend. One can imagine given his busy schedule that this was not so easy to achieve.

So, those of us who are interested in organizing the conference can now work on the CFP, which can build on the old one, available still here: http://commonsresearch.wikidot.com/call

Perhaps a couple of you, say for example Juan Carlos and Prodromos (as you guys have shown a strong interest during and after the workshop last year), as well as Larry (who will be hosting the conference so should be kept informed) can work with me to produce a first draft of a revised CFP and then circulate it on this list for more feedback? Of course all are welcome to provide inputs, I'm just thinking about how to stage this so as to be more efficient and get it out quicker - last year the amount of emails I sent around was enormous and I don't have that kind of bandwidth this year - which is fine I think because we've already been through the process once, so this time it should be easier.

Can you let me have a first go at the revised CFP this week and then share with you?

The last post just awakened this thought and Christopher Adams just
reminded me about this list and the upcoming conference :)

Giorgos and other colleagues, what is the latest on the Commons Research
project and conference?

I should check in as well as what is happening with the Creative Commons
Metrics project. Has anyone done anything with this data?
