Dear colleagues,

Sorry for crossposting this. Feel free to send link to other lists.

The World Intellectual Property Organization is debating a new agenda
proposed by Brazil and Argentina.  There was a big debate on the
proposal at a TACD meeting in Geneva, Sept 13-14, 2004.  The Declaration
available at the following link:
http://www.cptech.org/ip/wipo/genevadeclaration.html  comes from
discussions at this meeting.

The Declaration speaks for itself.  People should read it and send name
(and affiliation if any) to:

 mailto:geneva_declaration at cptech.org

We are collecting signatures but probably will not post names of people
who sign until tomorrow.  For questions, contact Thiru
<thiru at cptech.org> or Manon <manon.ress at cptech.org>
