Russell,

Hope all is well.  As you may know, the U of O is putting on a major 
tech law conference early next month featuring a stellar group of 
people as well as a policy lunch with Industry Canada and Canadian 
Heritage.  I am forwarding the notice below as it may be of interest

Thanks.

Best,
