The session on copyright might be particularly useful to video tape and post on YouTube or some other video forum

I note that I would be really surprised if people from CC aren't planning to participate, but this is the first I've seen of the conference so far--I should coordinate with people to figure out who is going. (Tim, are you on this list?) But it might be fun to do a legal session with a bunch of lawyers in different aspects of the field (OK, my idea of "fun" may be broken). FWIW, there is a "copyright help" expo booth at ALA every year--if you recall Lucy's psychiatric help booth from the Peanuts comics, meant to be rather like that--where people come up throughout with their questions, staffed by the more copyright-knowledgeable members. It's not, strictly speaking, *popular*, but probably useful. I could see a session on copyright, OER, and institutional repositories--perhaps one where people submit questions beforehand, giving presenters time to 1) select the most popular and 2) prepare... -Kat -- Your donations keep Wikipedia free: https://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Donate Web: http://www.mindspillage.org Email: kat@wikimedia.org, kat@mindspillage.org (G)AIM, Freenode, gchat, identi.ca, twitter, various social sites: mindspillage _______________________________________________ Wikimedia-SF mailing list Wikimedia-SF@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimedia-sf
