Sorry for the delay, but the English translations of the letter we sent to the landscape architects and the answers from three authors' organizations are up now on WMEE's wiki: https://ee.wikimedia.org/wiki/Panoraamivabadus#Inglise_t.C3.B5lked
This might give some insight on how we got the authors themselves on board and what concerns they had. Authors are quite important in moving towards FoP because most opponents argue they protect the authors, which might be a little bit difficult to do if the authors side with us.

Congratulations! This is encouraging to see in Estonia, and I like the approach of working with the Architects’ Association.

We really do have mostly Raul here to thank for this huge - and often thankless - work (you can read his progress report on Meta https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_chapters/Reports/Wikimedia_Eesti/FoP_campaign_report_2015). I know that he doesn't get enough credit for it from our local community; hopefully, this thread will show him that his efforts are truly appreciated.

Hey Tanel,
We've already shared the English translation of the EAA's letter of
support with Myriam Berard from WMFR. I'll see if I can dig it up somewhere so I can share it here along with a more extensive progress report.
That’s perfect, thanks for doing it :) And congratulations to WMEE for your great work on this :)
