Re: [Patents] MAFIA meeting on Capitol Hill

[Seth Johnson <seth.johnson@RealMeasures.dyndns.org>]

It appears to be the 30 required signatories some
international treaty.  No big fish seem to have signed,
besides USA.

There was some big treaty recently that was going to come
into force this month on this basis -- I forget what it was
called, WIPO Phonograms and Something treaty.

Perhaps they'll put out the next line of spin at this
shindig -- something valorizing static works of authorship,
is my prognosis (if I'm piecing things together properly).

(LOL -- a dip into the speculative depths of Seth's mind)
