I just thought  I would say a few words on each of the 2 workshops I went to.

Creative Freedom Foundation workshop: If you wanted to learn about Intellectual Property and Copyright  in New Zealand this was the workshop .  A couple of thing I learnt were.

• Copyright is not a recent problem e.g. The estate of Margaret Mitchell attempting to suppress The Wind Done Gone for being similar to Gone with the Wind.
• Business models need to change as well as the law.
• The The Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement (ACTA) looks more at  Infringing Copyright on the internet than Counterfeit goods.
  
• To get other people aware join other organisations and explain to them what Intellectual Property means for them.

Thank you Bronwyn and Matthew for the Talk

Installing open source software: Brenda Wallace showed how to install and use Ubuntu on our laptops actualy it was quite fun and supising easy.

SO I am looking foward to tomorrow brings.
