Hi,

The domain wipo.edu is also free. I think the name 'World Internet
Piracy Organization" is very nice. I agree with Ray that we could have a
separate arm to advocate against "intelectual property", independently
of party filliation.

I think the "pirate WIPO" will get a lot of sympathizers around the world.
