DMCRA hearing witness list available now
[Breaking news! Citizen journalism! Original reporting! You heard it here first (all dozen readers or so ... see previous DMCRA hearing entry about coverage)]
[Remember, DMCRA, the "Digital Media Consumers' Rights Act", is the anti-DMCA]
The witness list, that is, the people who will be testifying in the hearing, is now available, at http://energycommerce.house.gov/108/Hearings/05122004hearing1265/hearing.htm
It's an impressive line-up (more than a dozen panelists):
Lawrence Lessig, Jack Valenti (MPAA), Cary Sherman (RIAA), and more.
Witness statements aren't available there yet, but the Lessig DMCRA testimony is posted on his site.
[And if anyone is wondering, I didn't even try to be a witness here. It's above my status level, and there would be no support for me to do it anyway. Though deep down, as a person "primary responsible" for a DMCA exemption, I do think that I would have something to say.]
