Hello, everybody!
As reported previously [1], the OHIM (IP Observatory)[2] has picked up our
request to commission a study on the benefits of public domain and open
licenses. To get the process going we need to present a one-pager with our
main ideas. This document has been worked out together with EDRi [3] and
BEUC [4], as they will also request the same study in order to have more
leverage. We have kept this intentionally broad at some points, as the OHIM
needs to make a first step in specifying the exact form and methodology.
I am sharing this with you now and asking for feedback and comments until
the middle of next week. Please bear in mind, that this is really just a
first pitch and the form of the study will be agreed upon in the months to
come.
Thank you!
Dimi
