Quoting David Berry <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
No doubt you all saw the 'news' that Creative Commons is to be headed
by........ a venture capitalist...
He seems to be a bit more than a VC if you read his bio and current
activities.
This bodes ill for free culture connected to Creative Commons and it
is perhaps a good juncture to discuss ways forward for Free Culture
and related ideas in the New Commons Capitalism.
I think having a VC(++) with a background in social networking trying to do
freedom might be better than having a law professor trying to do
capitalism. Or
it could just finish off CC as a trendy part of the Web 2.0 bubble. But I'm
hoping for the former. ;-)
Lessig's NonCommerical Permission Culture definitely needs tackling.
