Send Me to Brazil

Creative Commons has launched a fund raising campaign to support this year’s iCommons Summit in Brazil. The only way I can get there is if someone else pays (last year I got a full scholarship) so please consider donating.

Here’s the group picture from the iCommons Summit at Harvard 2005. I must admit that I don’t remember all the names but for most people in that photo, I could name the country they’re from!

The summit is a really good way to get to know people from the other CC teams. Before last year’s summit, I didn’t know anyone. Since last year, we have had a visit from CC Japan, web design help from CC Chile (Thanks Claudio! I hope I’ll have time to actually use your files soon.) and we’re planning a joint project with CC South Africa.

And, of course, it’s fun. You get to drink beer with famous law professors and see things like the infamous pool incident live.

So please consider donating.
