de EC en het auteursrecht

|

SURF is een Nederlands samenwerkingsverband tussen verschillende universiteiten, hogescholen en onderzoeksinstellingen ivm. ICT-innovaties, en het daarbij onvermijdelijke auteursrecht.
SURF is verheugd over de recente oproep van de EC om 'open access' te stimuleren: "De Europese Commissie ondersteunt krachtig de beweging om de wetenschap transparanter en maatschappelijk verantwoord te maken. EU-Commissaris Potočnik (Onderzoek en Wetenschap) ondersteunt de oproep tot open access, waarmee wetenschappelijk materiaal vrijelijk beschikbaar komt voor iedereen, via digitale opslagruimten op internet. SURF-directeur Liebrand is buitengewoon verheugd over de Europese steun: “Na jaren van verbale support voor het idee dat publiek gefinancierd onderzoek ook publiek toegankelijk moet zijn, treft de EU nu daadwerkelijk maatregelen om dit idee te realiseren.”" (SURFblog)

SURF heeft daarnaast ook gereageerd op de oproep van de EC om te reageren op haar Groenboek Auteursrecht in de kenniseconomie. De EC wil met deze consultatie nagaan of de bestaande Europese wetgeving op het gebied van auteursrecht het verspreiden van ontwikkelde kennis afdoende stimuleert. Tevens wil de Commissie weten of de huidige wetgeving schrijvers en uitgevers voldoende aanzet om elektronische versies van kennisproducten in omloop te brengen.
SURF adviseert:
"Hergebruik van andermans kennis is essentieel voor het onderwijs en vooruitgang in de wetenschap. Daarom is meer wettelijke ruimte voor gebruikers in onderwijs en onderzoek gerechtvaardigd. Afspraken maken over toegestaan gebruik kan de verspreiding van kennis eerder belemmeren. Kenmerkend voor onderzoek en onderwijs is juist dat andermans werk zonder contractuele toestemming mag worden hergebruikt."
en
"SURF merkt op dat het Groenboek tamelijk eenzijdig vanuit het perspectief van de rechthebbenden, en dan met name de uitgevers, is geschreven en duidelijk veel van contractuele afspraken verwacht. Onderwijs- en onderzoeksinstellingen, wetenschappers, consumenten en andere hergebruikers zijn echter meer gebaat bij meer wettelijke ruimte dan bij contractuele afspraken, niet in het minst vanwege hun zwakke onderhandelingspositie." (SURFblog)

Creative Commons and non-commercial: a questionnaire

|

CC international is urgently seeking for people who want to take 15-25 minutes to complete a questionnaire about the understanding of “NonCommercial” use. The questionnaire runs through December 7.

“The study has direct relevance to Creative Commons’ mission of providing free, flexible copyright licenses that are easy to understand and simple to use,” said Creative Commons CEO Joi Ito. “The NC term is a popular option for creators choosing a Creative Commons license, and that tells us the term meets a need. However, as exponentially increasing numbers of works are made available under CC licenses, we want to provide additional information for creators about the contexts in which the NC term may further or impede their intentions with respect to the works they choose to share, and we want to make sure that users clearly understand those intentions. We expect the study findings will help us do a better job of explaining the licenses and to improve them, where possible. We also hope the findings, which will be made publicly available, will contribute to better understanding of some of the complexities of digital distribution of content.”

netlabel grafix

|

Everybody in the nelabel world knows and appreciates Eldino's blog, because of his essential readings about netlabels. Just remember and reread these classics:
- How to start a netlabel?
- What is a netlabel?
- Some statistics
- How-to tag songs?
This week Eldino has published new statistics of netlabel tunes and their genres: it is based on 43.057 downloaded files, and his own tagging. First conclusions are that there is a lot of noise to download, there is lots of electronic dance music, and there is almost no rock music in the netlabel scene. Feel free to participate in the lively discussion about his conclusions on Phlow.

Binnenkort wordt in de Europese Commissie het voorstel gelanceerd om de bescherming op het auteursrecht van 50 jaar op 95 jaar te brengen. Onder de titel "Make sure MEPs hear your views on copyright term extension - get in touch today" geven Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) en Open Rights Group (ORG) enkele tips om uw Europarlementariër (hier is een lijst van de Vlaamse) te overtuigen om niet voor te stemmen. Je vindt er ook enkele links met argumentaties waarom de EC beter niet het gelobby van de muziekindustrie volgt.
