Library of Congress to Hold DMCA Hearings
petong writes "The Library of Congress's Copyright Office will be holding hearings to find out if changes need to be made to the DMCA, according to News.com.
'Anyone with strong feelings about the DMCA, one way or another, may submit a request by Apr. 1 to testify during the public forums, the Copyright Office said in its announcement. The hearing dates in the U.S. capital will be Apr. 11, Apr. 15 and May 2. The dates and locations in California have not been set yet.'"
I sure hope its not some sick joke by the Copyright Office :)

I would like to point out that there is nothing in the DMCA that prevents you from continuing to persue the occupation you desire. You were interested in becoming a lawyer weren't you?
You never know...
Note: This above does not apply if RMS wants to speak.
I patented screwing your mom. But it got revoked for "prior art."
Your comments become the property of the Federal Government, and viewing of the final report requires agreement to the license agreement.
In other news, several RIAA higher-ups were crushed to death under a hailstorm of pocket-protectors, retainers, and taped-together eyeglassses.

I thought the title said, "Library of Congress to Hold DMCA Herrings"
Just proves you see what you want to see...
are distracting, destructive and a thing of the past. Haven't you been listening? Stop being so selfish and unpatriotic. Now go unlock your doors. It makes it easier for us to check your homes for illegal content while you sleep.
This is an excellent opportunity to show that the DMCA is crap but please, those of you who attend don't make fools of yourselves. That means dress nice (no DeCSS t-shirts and wear a tie) and that means bathe, shave, and shower. That also means wear both shoes.
Bah! Shoes are for people who go outside, not geeks!
