The wikileaking of the IP section will make it harder to progress, perhaps the whole thing can be killed if the world sees the contents, soon.

*Dear all, The Sunlight Foundation asks that you join us in our fight to shed light on the Trans-Pacific Partnership trade negotiations and bring transparency to all future trade negotiations. The Trans-Pacific Partnership <http://sunlightfoundation.com/blog/2013/11/14/recent-developments-show-desire-for-trade-talk-transparency/> is a binding international agreement that could have far-reaching implications. Twelve Pacific Rim countries participated in the most recent round of negotiations, which took place this August in Brunei, and several others have expressed interest in joining. Despite the need for public scrutiny and participation in these important negotiations, they have happened almost entirely in secret. This must change. In the attached letter, we urge the leaders of the involved countries to complete negotiations over the Trans-Pacific Partnership in public view and commit to full transparency in all future international trade negotiations. We encourage you to join us in our fight for transparency and sign the enclosed letter. To do so, we ask that you fill out this short form <https://docs.google.com/a/sunlightfoundation.com/forms/d/1r-Jgt9LM55bIGIUjx5cFnSXSovddAmaiLUcfmNnfnwU/viewform> by the end of your work day on Monday, November 18th. You can see who has already signed on here <https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AoQuErjcV2a0dGVuRjg0ckYza2NqYkR6YnpwbU1jc2c&usp=sharing>! Thank you for your time and support. Best, Julia Keseru Sunlight Foundation *
