It seems like an opportune time for me to again request feedback on a
couple of papers that directly address IP protection and what it does to
markets, to people, and to society:

   (a starting paper, for CAUSE in '99, with Gillian Dempsey)

   (for an FoI conference in '99, then in First Monday 4, 11)

I've had valuable feedback from a few specialists in the link community;
but I'm trying to get reactions from more than just specialists ...
