Hey All,
I wanted to share with you a conversation that the legal team is starting
below, where they are discussing what the known issues about copyright. I
think we are in a really ought to show up in the conversation!
It occurs to me, that the GLAM-Wiki Outreach folks, especially in the
European Context, have the most experience, by far, in sharing our
Copyright framework/strategies to other audiences. It would be super
helpful if you weighed in a bit, not only on the copyright law questions
themselves, but also shared experiences about outreach and communications
challenges related to copyright.
Cheers,
Alex Stinson

We on the Wikimedia Foundation Legal Team have been working on creating a
better and more collaborative process for organizing, streamlining, and
completing Wikimediaâs copyright-related work. Weâd like to hear from you
about it in the next couple weeks, and then weâd like to work together to
identify, prioritize, and address copyright issues.
You can read more about the copyright strategy on Meta at

comments on the talk page.
Thanks!
