Nice to see that Beth Noveck was added to the faculty, so there is one woman now anyway.

Hi - it's Wendy from the Berkman Center. It's true, we have no full scholarships available this year. However, we do have non-profit discounts, student discounts, etc. so please contact me if you feel you have special circumstances. And you're not required to live in the dorms. ;)

You should do one in DC for Congressional staffers. That would be really useful, and effective.

Hello there,

I just got word back from Jerri DeKriek from the Center for Management Research.

"in the past, scholarship money has been donated but, unfortuantely, this year there were no donations so we cannot extend an offer to help."

So there you go. No scholarships this year; what a shame.

sorry for off-topic, but what about latest stats of The Public Domain Enhancement Act? I somehow thought it was kinda "dropped"(though they never say that), or in the stasis, or at least not active, as it is in the "Phase 2"--past-- section on Eldred.cc. but now i heard it has been reintroduced.

any comment? or have they decided that nutty commie professor talking about it is bad publicity?

Juan Carlos, it's a pleasure. Moreover, I know that the Law School of my university (Universit� di Pavia, near Milan), and especially professor Romano Oneda, is following very closely the subjects of the iLaw courses, and are discussing of establishing a center for Internet Law. If you're interested, I can give you some e-mail addresses and you could discuss future developements of such courses in Western Europe.

Thanks for reminding the readers of this blog about iLaw Turin, Antonio, as well as for your kind words. We, too, hoped to have Larry Lessig with us in this first Western European iLaw. Who knows? Maybe next year we will organize it again and he will be able to attend.

No danger of contracting pesky girl germs from *that* faculty...

Too bad you can't make it for the one in Turin! I was hoping to meet you there, together with the other great professors (I can't wait for wednesday to come). I warmly advice attending this courses to everyone who doesn't live anywhere near the universities where these professors teach.

Why overseas exclusively? Surely there are still plenty of people in the US who can't afford the (frankly exorbitant) conference registration[1] *and* the ridiculous travel to admittedly cool locations, and who ought to hear the message? [Like, say, myself? :)

[1] More than three times as much as an entire semester with John Palfrey and Urs Gasser at Harvard Extension.
