Hello everyone,
I thought you might be interested in this piece I've been sent from the
Wall Street Journal. It's by Jean-Claude Juncker, a lead candidate for the
European People's Party in the upcoming EU elections.
In his article he calls for a single European digital market, as well as
reforms to areas such as copyright - including harmonisation of regulations
across the EU.
This fits well with the work of the Free Knowledge Advocacy Group EU and so
thought it worth a read. It's at

Thanks and regards,
