[pp.int.general] Fwd: [The IPKat] BREAKING NEWS: draft impact assessment on review of EU copyright made available

[seykron]

The domain copywrong.eu doesn't work, maybe you copied the wrong link?

Do you know if is there a common effort from any local Pirate Party to
build a document with recommendations? I would prefer to subscribe an
existing document instead of making it from scratch.

Thanks,

Matías
