  Open Source Database Licensing Panel – NYC 4/21 

  The Institute for Information Law & Policy and the International
  Intellectual Property Society present: Open Source Database Licensing

  Date: Wednesday, April 21, 2010
  Time: 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.
  Location: NY Law School 185 West Broadway NYC Room W201
  RSVP: Naomi Allen at naomi.allen*at*nyls.edu. Refreshments will be served.

  Database owners are increasingly seeking ways to make their data
  available so that others can contribute to and build on their work. This
  “open data” movement emphasizes the importance of sharing data for both
  scientific development and humanitarian response. The willingness of
  database owners to make their data available for re-use depends on their
  ability to impose conditions on that release, which requires
  consideration of the varying levels of copyright protection afforded to
  databases across jurisdictions.

  Please join us for a panel presentation focusing on the challenges
  associated with balancing the advantages of “open data” with the need
  for database owners to impose conditions on release. The speakers will
  address the current state of copyright protection afforded to databases
  and strategies for encouraging database sharing.

  Panelists:
  Janelle C. Bonanno, Graduate Research Fellow, New York Law School
  Christopher Cotter 3L, New York Law School
  Rachel DeLetto, Graduate Research Fellow, New York Law School
  Cynthia Grady 2L, New York Law School
  Chris Holmes, The Open Planning Project; Chair, Project Steering Committee, GeoServer
  Molly Beutz Land, Associate Professor of Law, New York Law School
  James Vasile, Software Freedom Law Center; Board Member, Open Source Matters

  NYCInfoLaw Reading Group: International Internet Regulation

  Tuesday April 13, @ 7PM, Room 211, Cardozo Law School, 55 Fifth Ave.

  The Internet’s global scale means that there are as many different approaches to regulating it as there are countries. Recent disputes over privacy in Italy, censorship in China and discord over ACTA provisions have highlighted these tensions. Can we ensure that the Internet remains a reliable global tool without compromising the differing values of participating countries?

  Readings (choose one or more from each category):

  • Italy Privacy case:
    CNN Reports
    NPR’s Story
    The Electronic Frontier Foundation’s take

  • Google Closing in China:
    Wall Street Jornal
    AP

  • Senate Judiciary Committee Hearing on Global Internet Freedom:
    http://judiciary.senate.gov/hearings/hearing.cfm?id=4437
    http://www.cato-at-liberty.org/2010/03/02/global-internet-freedom-via-government-regulation/

  • ACTA:
    Ars Technica
    http://www.publicknowledge.org/node/2950

  Both events are free and open to the public.

  The  Cardozo School of Law is at 55 5th Avenue NYC (bet 12th & 13th St)

  FAILfaire NYC – 4/14 #Failfare 

  

  FAILfaire features projects using mobiles and ICTs in international development that have, to put it simply, been a #FAIL. Busted, kaputt. Tongue firmly in cheek, we take a close look at what didn’t work and why the projects failed amidst the ICT4D hype we all are subjected to (and sometimes contributors to). We believe that only if we understand what DOESN’T WORK in this field and stop pushing our failures under the rug, can we collectively learn and get better, more effective, and have greater impact as we go forward.

  The inaugural FAILfaire will be held in New York City on April 14th, 2010 from 5:00-7:30 pm. We are very grateful to The Open Planning Project (TOPP) for hosting us in their beautiful SoHo loft space. Please register here!

  Agenda:

  5:00 Welcome and drinks
  5:30 FAIL-slam: the #FAILfaire Talks showcasing failure in ICT and mobiles in development
  6:30 Open Discussion
  7:00 Mingling, learning, networking, more drinks
