Lawrence Lessig, o advogado das boas causas do mundo digital e pai do Creative Commons, está em solo tupiniquim. Veio participar do iSummit '06.



Quando chegou ao Rio recebeu a notícia do 'add-in' Creative Commons para o MS Office. Sua opinião:

"Microsoft has been on the right side of a number of important issues — spectrum, net neutrality, identity — and I’m very glad they’re on the right side of this issue too. Giving creators the tools to mark their creativity with the freedoms they intend it to carry is a fantastically good thing to do.

"'But it’s just for the Windows platform, isn’t it?' True enough. Now we need some enterprising sort to make a plug-in for Office on the Mac, as well as Garageband, OpenOffice, and many others. Let the competition begin".

Btw, o primeiro pontoDOC (documento do Word) a utilizar a extensão foi um texto sobre tropicalismo de nosso Ministro da Cultura, Sr. Gilberto Gil. Chamado por Lorenço de músico 'supercool'.
