All,

  I was made even further aware from a few of our members
and Slasdot that IP Justice http://www.ipjustice.org/
is getting growing support in opposing WIPO's proposed
global copyrights for broadcasting treaty.
See: http://www.ipjustice.org/WIPO/top10reasons.shtml

Thankfully nations must through whatever ratification process
they have to ratify and be bound by this proposed treaty.  Hopefully
the US will not do so in it's present form according to our US
members.

Regards,
