I’m in Edinburgh to present at DIS:E run by Ren Reynolds and Andrés Guadamuz.

My talk is on, predictably enough, the rule of law and legitimacy in virtual community governance. Particularly, I want to focus on two main ways that we can look at things differently: looking at the limits of contract rather than only the contractual terms themselves; and looking at procedural legitimacy rather than substantive rights. My slides are here in PDF.

Over the last two days, I have been at the Copyright 2010 Conference hosted by the CIPL at ANU and organised by Dr Matthew Rimmer.

I presented two papers at this conference, one on moral rights and open licensing and another on graduated response schemes and the rule of law.
