Comments on “the "balance" that is WIPO”


Professor, you wouldn't happen to have that available in some vector format, would you?

I second the above comment. Any chance of getting a vector version of that?

These are data, but not an argument, professor. Isn't it true, after all, that in these developing countries there are pretty profoundly underdeveloped IP regimes in the first place -- in other words, they are lacking in expertise on the topic, from the commercial end, the consumer end and the government end?

Expertise is not the only criterion for selecting participants in the conference, but the one that you suggest is indicative of something (not quite sure what) is not -- at least not obviously -- a better one.

This is a question, not an argument. Not that I don't know what you are trying to say.

"Professor, you wouldn't happen to have that available in some vector format, would you?"

I started making one based on Larry's version, but got bored. At http://www.xs4all.nl/~collin/test/ wipodevagend.zip you will find a ZIPped Sodipodi SVG. I made the dots and the text, but you will still need to add/convert the WIPO logo and the public domain dedication thingy.

(The text is slightly out of whack, because I used a single space after sentences instead of a double.)

I am asking the professor what he's trying to say. He's the one who made the blog entry.

I kind of suspect that you knew that.
