Hi,
A story about WIWO that I submitted to Slashdot.org was published on Oct19.
You can have a look at http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=04/10/19/174240
Do you accept anonymous donations for WIWO, and how can people donate?

Thanks.

Obviously, such a World Intellectual Wealth Organisation would have to take the place of the current WIPO -- whether it would be created as a new initiative or whether WIPO would be transformed could not be predicted at the current time.
This is obviously an activity that has to happen on United Nations level if it is to have the effect we seek, which means that it is not something that we could simply establish, it is something we have to work for at that level.
FSFE has been pushing in that direction during the United Nations World Summit on the Information Society (WSIS) [1] and will keep doing so in the second phase.
If you want to support our work with your donation, information on how to do this can be found online [2] -- we should soon be able to accept credit card donations, as well. Many others of the signatories are also working in that direction and also need support, so you could also donate there.

For supporters in the UK, donations to FSFE can be made online (via AFFS) using a debit/credit card at http://www.affs.org.uk/support
