Congratulations, Nemo and Dimi! Great to hear that the idea of Visiting Weasels (I love this title) is filled with life. Good luck, you two.
Best, Nicole

Hello, everybody!
I am very happy to announce that Federico (user:nemo) will be our first Visiting Weasel in Brussels.
He will be in Brussels in the week 13-17 April, just weeks ahead of the Legal Affairs Committee vote on the Implementation of the InfoSoc Directive Report ("Reda Report"), which is scheduled for 8 May.
His job will be to concentrate mainly on Italian MEPs and round up support for PDGov and FoP, which are both part of the first draft but now under considerable attack. The first might get deleted altogether, while for the latter there is proposal to include a non-commercial restriction.
Nemo has been very active so far in our advocacy efforts, working on our strategy, monitoring and contacting decision-makers in Brussels and Italy. We are already working on filling his schedule.
More details on the amendment proposals and committee opinions next week in the monitoring report ;)
Have a great weekend! Dimi
