Most of you will already be aware the term extensions for performer 
copyright is a hot issue right now in the UK and that the BPI have been 
lobbying hard. It also seems that Mr Purnell, the Minister for Creative 
Industries, is currently in favour so it's definitely the time to make 
your voice heard. Thus I would like to encourage everyone who wants to 
and hasn't already to *sign up to the petition* regarding copyright 
extensions via:

If you have the time you can also add your personal testimony -- it 
really adds to the impact even if it is only a sentence or two.

(see http://14plus14.freeculture.org.uk/ for existing submissions)
