Dear all,<br>
<br>
this is going well. We have 7 days to go. I�ve accepted all tracked changes, updated word counts and removed explanatory notes, keeping those that need further changes. Please find attached the �clean� version 1.09. I�ll continue with new tracked changes in ver 1.10 in the following mail. Here just some comments on partners.<br>
<br>
At the Global Congress in Washington, I�ve talked to Bernt Hugenholtz about IvIR partnering with us. He vaguely recalled having been approached by a different consortium, will check and get back asap. I also talked to Paul Keller from COMMUNIA Association. They are still in founding but we may include them under "partners approached�.<br>
<br>
I could have easily and still can ask the Center for Technology and Society, FGV Law School, Rio de Janeiro and the Research Group on Public Policy for Access to Knowledge at the University of Sao Paulo. I did not yet do it because it seems I�m the only one looking into international partners an I wasn�t sure I have the mandate to approach them. If the other bidders come up with only inner-UK partners, our international ones might be an asset, considering Brazil is both a strong export market for the UK and a strong pirate market. If someone can please give me some feedback on this I can still ask those two for partnering. Alternative Law Forum Bangalore is unlikely, given Lawrence Liang is infamous for not answering emails. The Centre for Internet & Society, Bangalore (Sunil Abraham) might still be doable.<br>
<br>
The international consultative board under "Centre structure� now mentions all continents. For North America, we only have MIT Press as "partner approached�. I could ask Terry Fisher from Berkman. Who are we talking to in Australia?<br>
<br>
Best,<br>
