   I am wondering if at least part of this campaign can coincide with 
CopyCamp http://copycamp.ca/ (September 28-30), and that the Ryerson 
campus could be one of the targets.  It may also be worth talking to 
organizers to find out about having a table at the event, if this isn't 
already being done.


   Are any of the other people in this list attending?  I will be there, 
likely hosting 3 different discussions (I start the talks, but this is 
an "unconference) on "Protecting property rights in the digital age" (A 
"DRM" talk based on http://www.flora.ca/documents/digital-ownership.html 
), on Cryptography, and on analyzing the full spectrum of business 
models for creativity.
