<p class="MsoNormal">Hi Andrew,<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">It is very difficult to comment on a process where a variety of voices have heard and the final decision is still to be made (ministry, than parliamentary), but yes, article 9 has been the focus of attention for the research community:<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">- the initial draft was rather publisher friendly with long embargoes (12 - 24) and prevention of commercial re-use<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">- the community at large has pushed dramatically reduce embargoes (amendment by CNRS) and even suggest that we should get rid of them (amendment di Cosmo) or leave the author’s manuscript free of any constraint (Inria)<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">- there is an attempt to re-introduce an exemption for TDM which had disappear between an early draft of the law and the one made available for public consultation<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">It seems that the community has been heard and that we may have a more favorable draft at the next stage.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Still, the important aspect related to this law is that it made many of use read thoughtfully the Code de la Propriété Intellectuel and converge on the idea that it is not allowing any kind of non remunerated (exclusive) copyright transfer.
Quick some good news for French scholars who have been forced to sign such (illegal) CTA.<o:p></o:p></p>
