More details
I would like to start a local organisation for London that would be dedicated to widening participation in artistic, cultural or other creative activity through the sharing, appropriation and reuse of work.

Such a group would also provide a forum for Londoners who produce and distribute creative work under copyleft / creative commons / free culture terms to meet and discuss their work and and issues related to copyright, authorship and appropriation.

Anyone is welcome, especially those with any interest in the sharing, appropriation, and remixing of existing creative work, or with an interest in the Free Culture / Copyleft movement or the Creative Commons!

• Oy, you should post about this to the london dorkbot group and the cory doctorow copyfighters drunken sunday brunch people as well...

• Hi John!
  
  I think I should have caught most of the copyfighters lot through the ORG list - there isn't a dedicated list for London Copyfighters AFAIK. Dorkbot is an excellent idea though, London Geekdinners regulars might also be interested!
  
  cheers,
