Limerick competition
Having received a bundle of last-minute entries just before the deadline, the IPKat will be taking a little longer to consider the winner. The identity of the Limerick Laureate, winner of the free place on the CLT conference next Wednesday on IP in the Fashion Industry, will be unveiled tomorrow morning, together with a selection of some of the better entries.
Right: there will be bagfuls (or is it bagsful) of useful IP law for the fashion industries at next week's conference. See you there?
New IP blog on the block
English law firm Freeth Cartwright's IP&T department has launched its own weblog. Admittedly it's aimed at clients rather than IP/IT professionals, so the IPKat doubts he'll see any advice along the lines of "why not take a chance and infringe ..." or "death to all software patent owners".
The new blog rejoices in the name of Impact, which is snappily memorable and promises something that packs a punch. It's got lots of useful links and helpful information, too. Merpel adds, the blog runs under a Creative Commons licence, which means that you can make use of its contents without getting prior authorisation .. er, unless you can't.
If you like Impact, do tell Ann Critchell-Ward: you can email her here.

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.
