Next week Computers Freedom and Privacy 2007 is being held in Montreal.

I did the keynote speech for the CFP 2001 in Toronto, and while I’m out of the Security & Privacy business with my new gig at Akoha - these are issues I’m still very passionate about in my personal & professional life.

To welcome the out of town CFP guests, I’ve decided to throw a small party for Creative Commons and the Electronic Privacy Information Center.

There will first be a panel on Net Freedom at the Hilton Bonaventure hotel Tuesday May 1st from 6:30 to 8:00pm. This is an open panel to anyone who cares about Net Freedom. I’ll be posting more details on the panel when I’m not in a Mexican internet cafe (i.e. Sunday night).

For now the Upcoming.org listing for the event is here.

Following that I’ll be throwing a fundraising party at my loft for out-of-towners attending CFP and any local Montreal community members who want to come out.

Here is the listing for the fundraising party.

I will be circulating details including address, directions for the party at the Net Freedom panel, or if you wish to contact my assistant Katherine @ - she will be emailing out details on Monday for people who RSVP on upcoming or contact her.

Everyone is welcome to come out. There will be a small door fee, and a cash bar with all proceeds going to support Creative Commons and EPIC (where I’m an advisory board member).
