1. EU - Commission welcomes UEFA's new policy for selling the media
rights (RAPID)
The European Commission intends to take a favourable view towards
the draft new rules of UEFA, Europe's soccer governing body,
regarding the sale of the broadcasting and other media rights to the
Champions League. UEFA's draft new rules will bring the Champions
League media rights within the reach of Internet content providers
and UMTS operators as well as of a greater number of television and
radio companies. Instead of selling the rights as a bundle to only
one broadcaster per country, UEFA will sell the rights in several
packages for shorter periods of time, and individual football clubs
will also be able to exploit some of the rights with their fan base.

of the law. Among the articles the court suspended was a clause that
would have permitted more consolidation by Turkey's biggest media
conglomerates. The court did not suspend sections of the law that
could extend tight controls that are already applied to traditional
media to Web sites.

18. UK - Privacy worries fuel domain name concerns (BBC)
Nominet, which runs the .uk domain, is planning to expand the

basic information about an owner such as their name, when the name
was registered and the servers hosting it. Nominet says the change is
needed to bring it in line with other registries and to make it
easier to contact and identify domain holders in the event of
disputes. But the proposed changes have worried some people who fear
that the change could erode their personal privacy.

21. US - Web gambling ban effort slows on dog track concern (Reuters)
An effort to ban Internet-based gambling was slowed by opponents who
said the bill would hurt dog tracks, intrude on people's private
lives and lead to excessive regulation of the global computer
network. The debate in the House or Representatives Judiciary
Committee showed the difficulty of trying to pass a bill that would
ban the unregulated, offshore gambling sites without stepping on the
toes of the established, highly regulated domestic gambling industry.

26. Global - The Yahoo Case and the International Democratization of
the Internet (Fordham University)
by Joel  Reidenberg. This essay examines the French court order
requiring Yahoo to prevent French Internet users from accessing
images of Nazi memorabilia available on its American web site. The
essay uses the French case to challenge the popular belief that an
entirely borderless Internet favors democratic values. Professor
Reidenberg shows that Yahoo's extensive business in France justifies
the application of France's democratically chosen law and argues that
the decision has important normative implications for pluralistic
democracy on the global network.

interested to participate in the hearing must send their request by e-
mail to the Commission by 15 June 2002 to (comp-local-loop /at/ cec.eu.int).

prospects and risks for European companies (Centre for Intellectual
Property Policy & Management)
Bournemouth, UK, Tuesday, July 9th 2002 - 9.30am to 4.30pm Cost: £15
including buffet lunch and refreshments. Protecting software as
literary works under copyright is conceptually incoherent. It also
has the undesirable consequence of granting in effect permanent
restrictions on the use of software products. We shall never see the
source code of Windows. By contrast the patent system is said to be
based on a trade-off between disclosure and protection. Why then
treat software differently from other products of human ingenuity?
Awarding patents to software related inventions appears theoretically
plausible, but commercially problematic. In an industry advancing
through incremental innovations, the deadweight costs of a patent
system have been rejected by many independent software developers.
The European Patent Office has shirked the issue sheltering behind
the myth of a "technical effect". In practice, protecting software
under the European Patent Convention has now become a matter of
clever drafting. This symposium seeks to explore some of these issues
in an informal setting, away from the lobby interests of the Proposed
Directive of the European Commission.
