   Most legal frame related to new technologies is cooked up at Brussels. To
   get a feet into European Parliament's door and show that you care right
   before the election. Its future Members will decide on the patentability
   of software, on data privacy issues, TPRM, and so on), join an install
   party within parliament (and bring your favourite MEP with you), attend a
   panel with eg Alan COX, Georg GREVE, Jon Lech JOHANSEN (of decss fame),
   participate in a guided tour through brussels (anti-swpats "demo"), meet
   LUGs and programming rights groups from all over the place, and some
   chaotic nerds of FFII. A Wiki DSL connection will be available.

   On 14 April evening, there will be a diner/party at restaurant La
   Tentation, in the center of Brussels. http://plone.ffii.org/events/2004
