KjetilK's Journal: WIPO Changes Course

I guess the journal is useful for posting my rejected submissions. This was just rejected, but there is a place for it here, so here goes:

Cory Doctorow reports a "massive victory" at a meeting in The World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO)! So far, the WIPO has advocated only stronger and stronger Intellectual Property regulations, such as the the treaty leading to DMCA, the broadcast flag, and was easily lobbied to kill a meeting on open exchange of ideas.

The tide has turned. Successfully advocated by Jamie Love and brought to the table by Brazil and Argentina, the WIPO finally realizes that there must always be a balance.

Yes I also saw it at lwn.net [lwn.net] . Pretty cool.
Also don't worry about story getting rejected it happens; I recently got rejected myself, but it showed up the next day submitted by someone else.

Yup!

I don't mind getting rejected, I think 5 of about 30 stories I have submitted have been accepted, not bad at all. But I do think /. should report some good news occasionally too...
