IPKat Haiku competition

This is where the IPKat gets to announce the winner of his Haiku Competition. The prize, remember, is a complimentary place at CLT's Copying Without Infringing conference on Thursday 23 March. Well, Graeme Fearon (Thring Townsend) is our Haiku Laureate, having sent in these two wonderful efforts:
Original works -
Blooms of creativity.
Please don't pick the flowers

and

I found this haiku
On the web. I can copy
So I may, n'est-ce pas?
A close second is Miri Frankel (Beanstalk Group, NY), with her ode to the ECJ ruling in Arsenal v Reed:

Reeds would be rich and
Teams poor if courts accept badge
Of support defence.
Other commendations go to Barbara Cookson, Caroline Day, Gino van Roeyen (anything that begins "Fresh infringing spring ..." can't be all that bad).

IPKat Spot the Fish competition

It's also both the time and the plaice to announce the winner of the IPKat's Spot the Fish Competition. The prize is a complimentary place at CLT's 8th Annual Information Technology Law conference on Tuesday 21 March.

The sole winner (who skated it) is James Heath (News International), whose entry appears at the end of this post. No carping, please. James, you'll soon be herring from CLT ...

Commendations go to Matthew Rippon (Watson Burton), Andrea Glorioso (for his learned essay on Christians and fish symbolism), Jeffrey Chau and Davyd Chong.

No comments:

All comments must be moderated by a member of the IPKat team before they appear on the blog. Comments will not be allowed if the contravene the IPKat policy that readers' comments should not be obscene or defamatory; they should not consist of ad hominem attacks on members of the blog team or other comment-posters and they should make a constructive contribution to the discussion of the post on which they purport to comment.

It is also the IPKat policy that comments should not be made completely anonymously, and users should use a consistent name or pseudonym (which should not itself be defamatory or obscene, or that of another real person), either in the "identity" field, or at the beginning of the comment. Current practice is to, however, allow a limited number of comments that contravene this policy, provided that the comment has a high degree of relevance and the comment chain does not become too difficult to follow.
