dave,


that, of course, is a cstb report.  it is actually rather remarkable, 
because we
did the right thing in getting a balanced committee, and that microcosm 
was full
of contention.  that it came together as it did, and reached consensus on some
issues and laid out a good description of opposing view on others, is an
accomplishment.  we released it wednesday to a standing-room only briefing and
mini-symposium, with many positive observations about both its effective
description of the problem and its conclusions.

randy davis of mit chaired the committee.

(from Academy newsletter)
Legislators should delay overhauling intellectual property
laws or public policy to protect digital information until
markets have had time to adjust to new business
models and until sufficient research on electronic
copyright issues is conducted, says a new National
Research Council report.
