Key info from the EU release:- "All stakeholders are invited to take position on the elements listed in the Annex to the Communication by 29/02/2008." "This Communication is launching a focused public consultation in preparation for the adoption of a Recommendation on Creative Content Online by the Council and the European Parliament, and is creating a stakeholders' discussion and cooperation platform, the so-called "Content Online Platform", to initiate the work on forthcoming challenges."

Anyone want to compare notes before sending?
The defectivebydesign call seems fine to me - the statement was daft on all sorts of levels. Is there any drawback to signing it? When's it to be sent?
Thanks,
