<br>
Sure, I see your point. I think your actions to call MEPs and write them<br>
e-mails are great! More Pirates should do this locally, and perhaps as<br>
social events!!! :-)<br>
<br>
I have sketched postcards that can be sent to MEPs to remind them of the<br>
copyright consultation. Think Amnesty-style. This is easier for those<br>
pirates that have some form of common money to use.<br>
<br>
Another idea I had, although this is practically more difficult and much<br>
more demanding in resources of time and money, is to match geographical<br>
origin of consultation responses with the nationality of MEPs, and then<br>
simply transmit one citizen response to question 80 (the open-ended<br>
question, where most citizens have provided short essays detailing their<br>
relationship to copyright at large) to every MEP per day. For the German<br>
responses alone, this would take three years(!) but for some of the<br>
smaller member states it would take less than a month (although not much<br>
less than a month :P).<br>
<br>
One issue which needs to be dealt with in Germany is telecoms<br>
competition: how to get municipalities involved in a competitive<br>
telecoms strategy for the entire country. This is more or less happening<br>
in some smaller municipalities in northern Germany. BUGLAS is the<br>
national organisation for locally owned infrastructure. Austria shares<br>
similar developments, with rural communities being increasingly agitated<br>
that only the incumbents benefit from anti-competitive policies and at<br>
the expense of citizen wellfare. I was thinking local petition,<br>
targetting local politicians requesting them to be competitive - I've<br>
tried this in Sweden, and the support for competitive markets and free<br>
choice is over-whelming here, and the ears of housing associations in<br>
equal measure deaf. I'll report back in a few months when I can more<br>
accurately assess the outcome.<br>
<br>
best regards,<br>
