Begin forwarded message: From: "Gigi B. Sohn" <gbsohn () publicknowledge org> Date: January 8, 2009 7:53:49 AM EST To: "David Farber" <dave () farber net> Subject: FCC Reform Website Now Open Reply-To: gbsohn () publicknowledge org Dear David, Thank you for your interest in the "Reforming the Federal Communications Commission" project jointly sponsored by Public Knowledge and Silicon Flatirons, a Center for Law, Technology, and Entrepreneurship at the University of Colorado. We wanted to let you know that the website created as a follow up to the conference is now open at: http://fcc-reform.org The purpose of this website is to provide information and solicit *your* suggestions about what changes need to take place at the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) for the agency to restore the public's confidence that it will meet its legal obligation to promote the "public interest, convenience and necessity." On this website, we will post the papers related to the conference, including Phil Weiser's keynote paper, the panelists written responses to it, and former FCC General Counsel Henry Geller's April 1974 paper entitled "A Modest Proposal to Reform the Federal Communications Commission," which until now has never been available on line, and which clearly demonstrates that FCC reform is a topic whose time has come. The website also has a comprehensive bibliography of resources related to the topic, many of which were written by the conference panelists. Again, we are seeking thoughtful input from you, the public. Submit your own response to Phil's paper or any of the others. Provide brief comments or suggestions. Supplement the bibliography. Offer ideas on how we can continue to spotlight this issue. In short, we want you to become part of a conversation that will surely last well into the next four years and beyond. Thank you!
