Creative Commons Italia community is working now on the draft of  a law, the 
gist of which we want to  present to your attention.
"Scarichiamoli initiative " can be defined briefly like this:
Any intellectual production which has been financed with public resources 
and/or support should be under public domain, openly accessible and freely 
available. 

The Internet, due to its nature,  is a powerful medium  which can help 
communities and citizens to co-ordinate mutually and transform their 
aspirations into social, political, economic action.
Politicians are delegated (and paid)  to transform those aspirations into 
real and tangible solutions.
Whenever pragmatically: we have an aspiration, we want our representatives 
to do their job: they must listen to us. 

Communities and citizens have  a common desire: to share knowledge freely.
The old Latin saying: Vox populi, Vox Dei [the voice of the people is the 
voice of God] implies that the people's desires and aspirations are lawful 
and should be interpreted by the State.
There are many ways and media to do this: from the internet to digital TV.
So we don't propose just a refitting of the European Copyright laws 
(connected rights and patrimonial rights should be renounced by authors when 
they receive a public financial support) but we also demand the creation of 
a public web portal from which music, art, culture and knowledge in public 
domain can be "downloadable".
A public web portal with a simple login: "Download them" (Notice: In Italian 
"Scarichiamoli" stands for "download them" but also means "discard 
them"...guess who is going to be discarded...) 

To do this the State should co-ordinate with universities, foundations, 
associations. 

We strongly believe that public domain means nothing without public access.
If you share our initiative please endorse us, we will mention you as a 
subscriber.
If you can/want please collaborate with us.
