100 copies of IP Justice's statement and EFF's statement on the
broadcasting treaty were stolen and found in the trash of the
toilet at WIPO this morning.

None of the pro-broadcasting treaty documents were stolen
however.

Several of the Alternative NGO proposal were also stolen and
found behind a desk with more IP Justice statements this morning
too.

It is unclear if we will even be given a chance to speak at this
meeting.

Debate on all the controversial provisions has been put off until
the end (when there will be no time to deal with them).

They are really afraid that these delegates will be exposed to a
contrary view on the merits of this treaty.  Unbelievable.....

Robin
