**I have been asked to forward this to list members - apologies for crossposting** Collaboration and Ownership in the Digital Economy Conference Queens' College, Cambridge 4 - 6 April 2001 The Conference will appeal to everyone concerned with the emerging software and creative media industries, particularly the intersection between those industries where new media content is being created and disseminated via software distribution methods. It will offer insights also into issues critical to cultural and social development in Europe as well as globally. The rapid development of the open content movement has far-reaching consequences for policy makers across many disciplines particularly in a period of rapid expansion of investment in e-universities, distributed research laboratories, virtual facilities and the opening up of broadband networks which will enable high speed distribution of data and new kinds of media products.
