Hello Dimitar,

During Chaos Communications Congress I've had a few conversations with
various stakeholders (including Julia Reda, pirate MEP) and I expressed
my concern about proposed harmonisation of the copyright directive.

At the end of Julia's speech I have asked a question, whether
harmonisation of copyright would mean "harmonizing down" all the copyright
exceptions:

Your email raises another concern to me:  whether we have
to fight a new battle for every single one copyright exception 
(like freedom of panorama, no copyright for official documents, etc. etc.)?

What do you think?
