[Advocacy Advisors] First Visiting Weasel in Brussels

[Dimitar Parvanov Dimitrov]

Hello, everybody!

I am very happy to announce that Federico (user:nemo) will be our first
Visiting Weasel in Brussels.

He will be in Brussels in the week 13-17 April, just weeks ahead of the
Legal Affairs Committee vote on the Implementation of the InfoSoc Directive
Report ("Reda Report"), which is scheduled for 8 May.

His job will be to concentrate mainly on Italian MEPs and round up support
for PDGov and FoP, which are both part of the first draft but now under
considerable attack. The first might get deleted altogether, while for the
latter there is proposal to include a non-commercial restriction.

Nemo has been very active so far in our advocacy efforts, working on our
strategy, monitoring and contacting decision-makers in Brussels and Italy.
We are already working on filling his schedule.

More details on the amendment proposals and committee opinions next week in
the monitoring report ;)

Have a great weekend!
Dimi
