  Which set of buddies does he mean?  One of the things that EFC and
CIPPIC have that this list doesn't is some structure behind it.  Many of
us are also entirely lacking in funds -- I may not even be going to
conferences in the upcoming months for lack of funds.

  What is being thought?  It would be great to have someone representing
some of the more diverse viewpoints in this case given that it will likely
set important precedent in copyright law.
