Open Knowledge Forum on Open Content

Stanhope Centre
2 STANHOPE PLACE
London, England W2 2 Get Directions
This forum will focus on 'open content', that is works such as books, music, and films which are provided under terms that allow for free access, redistribution and re-use. Questions to address include:
  • What exactly does 'open' mean? For example are Creative Commons non-commercial licenses open?
  • How should we promote the creation and distribution of open content?
  • Who will be producing open content and how will it be funded?
  • Will there be an 'open content' revolution (in analogy to the 'open source' revolution in software)?

Speakers
  • Paula LeDieu, iCommons
  • Cory Doctorow, Writer and Campaigner
  • Tom Chance, RemixReading and Free Culture UK
  • Jennifer Rigby, BBC Creative Archive

Where and When
  • When: Wednesday 22nd February 2006, 7-9pm
  • Where: Stanhope Centre, Marble Arch, London, W2 2HH.
  • Who can attend: public.
Registration is optional but useful so please notify us if you can via okforums-info [at] okfn.org
Comments
There's an error in the text or metadata - one says "February 22, 2007", the other says "22nd February 2006". I guess 2006 is the right year?
