Yesterday, the Electronic Frontier Foundation
(EFF) filed an amicus
("friends of the court") brief in Golan v. Holder, a case of great
importance before the Supreme Court that will affect our understanding of
the public domain for years to come. See
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golan_v._Holder. The EFF is representing the
Wikimedia Foundation in addition to the American Association of Libraries,
the Association of College and Research Libraries, the Association of
Research Libraries, the University of Michigan Dean of Libraries, and the
Internet Archive.
I'm really happy to see us start getting involved in this kind of
work; I think it too is part of fulfilling our mission. Thanks for
your work on this, Geoff.
I agree. It is important that one will not undermine the public domain.
Thanks for pursuing it.
