[Advocacy Advisors] Draft letter to UK MEPs on copyright

[Stevie Benton]

Hello everyone,

As a part of the wider work that we're all doing on advocacy, Wikimedia UK
has put together a letter to UK MEPs calling on them to support changes to
copyright. The letter covers the three areas of interest of the Free
Knowledge Advocacy Group EU:


   - Freedom of panorama
   - Use of orphan works
   - Public domain of publicly-funded works

We've used illustrated examples in the text. We plan to send this out to
all 73 UK MEPs within the next couple of days, both by email and by post.

Do let me know if you have any thoughts.

Thanks and regards,

Stevie
