Greetings all.
Perhaps a bit late to the party, Wikimedia Denmark sent a letter (link
<https://dk.wikimedia.org/wiki/Dokumenter/Brev_af_17._marts_2018_til_Kulturministeren_ang._EU-kommissionens_foresl%C3%A5ede_direktiv_om_ophavsret>)
to the Danish Minister for Culture (the government official responsible for
the area of copyright) yesterday, explaining why article 11 & 13 of the
proposed copyright directive are problematic. There's no English
translation, but it's pretty much just a rephrasing of the arguments in the
template provided in the january monitoring report with a bit of local
issues/context thrown in as well. Hopefully they will at least be persuaded
to go from "inclined" to "skeptical".
All the best
Matthias Smed Larsen
WMDK Vice Chairman
