Hi all,
tl;dr
This is to let you know, that our "Position Paper on EU Copyright Reform" [1] has now been signed by 31 organisations and will be send out next week.
Signatories
We have 31 organisations from 17 European countries that signed it
15 Wikimedia chapters/thematic organisations/user groups
5 Open Knowledge (Foundation) chapters/groups
4 Organisations that primarily work on digital rights
3 Organisations mostly dedicated to free/open knowledge and IP issues
3 Organisations focused on free and open software
1 Open Street Map Foundation national partner
Unfortunately, the Open Street Map Foundation wants to sign it (the paper enjoyed vast support within their community) but for organisational reasons it would take them quite a while do so and we shouldn't wait much longer to send it out. Also, at least two more OKFN chapters stated their support for this, but haven't answered since.
