Dear Franco et al

sorry for the radio silence - got swamped with submitting another bid and other work (summer time rush!)

In any case, even if I want to do my best to support and participate, I don't think I am the one to lead this eventually.  However, we (well, Lorraine and Sean)  have been able to push this forward at our end after realizing that some other Southampton people have been already doing work in this direction already. So, if I am not mistaken, there was a meeting couple of days ago about this bid/centre possibility, where Sean and Lorraine took part. They might have news on where the meeting ended off and where to take this now.

This also might have some interesting details concerning the bid:

apologies for the silence,
all best

Hi to all,
we are almost one month behind the deadline and we got no progress at
all in the proposal writing for the "Centre for Copyright and New
Business Models in the Creative Economy"
(http://p2pfoundation.net/projects/doku.php/centre:resume).

At this point we would need to evaluate if we got the necessary
commitment to achieve the proposal preparation objective. It would be
good to know if Jussi and Volker would be able to lead this project as
was expected.


Thanks and best regards,
