The Public Domain Manifesto

"The Public Domain Manifesto has been produced within the context of COMMUNIA, the European Thematic Network on the digital public domain. The members of COMMUNIA Working Group 6, starting from an idea expressed during the 1st COMMUNIA Conference, worked for many months during 2009 to prepare a draft text, which was later circulated among COMMUNIA members, until a final version was completed. The views expressed by the Manifesto represent only the views of the signers. You can join the [communia] mailing list to discuss the manifesto with the COMMUNIA network members and with other people and organizations interested in the public domain"
