Greetings--

I thought many of you would be interested in a forthcoming conference
dealing with digital copyright issues: the Internet Law Program at Harvard
Law School. The program runs July 1-5, and features a debate between
Lawrence Lessig and a representative of Microsoft, plus a panel discussion
of Eldred v. Ashcroft featuring principals in the case. Below is a general
announcement; please do feel free to pass it on to friends and colleagues!

Best,
Donna

Announcement--please circulate widely.

Internet Law Program @ Harvard, July 1-5, 2002

The Berkman Center for Internet & Society at Harvard Law School is
pleased to announce that registration is now open for this summer's
Internet Law Program, the residential segment of which will take
place July 1-5 on the Harvard Law School campus.

On the agenda: IP rights, the evolution of copyright, privacy v.
security on the Net, the future of peer-to-peer, and more. Among
the highlights will be a debate between Lawrence Lessig and a
representative of Microsoft Corp. on open source software; a session
on the Internet and developing countries; and a panel discussion of
Eldred v. Ashcroft, now slated for hearing before the U.S. Supreme
Court.

The program will be taught by leading experts in the field, including
Lawrence Lessig of Stanford, Yochai Benkler of NYU, William Fisher
III, Charles Nesson and Jonathan Zittrain of Harvard, Jerry Kang of
UCLA (guest lecturer), and Julie Cohen of Georgetown (guest lecturer).
