there has been a major win in Australia against the use of derivative works

I would like to start political moves to free up this part of the copyright 
law in Australia. This is possible because we have had a change of 
government.
While I understand political lobbying, I don't understand what law I want 
changed and exactly why.

Can this list assist me with the creation of about 1/3 of a page summary of 
	what we do
	how we are unsure of our rights to accumulate facts and present them as Free 
Information
	the changes required in the law to provide certainty to our work

and a longer set of briefing papers
that is, something which the experts can read and follow on the above.

I have about 4 months before I will be actually in parliament seeing 
parliamentarians, so I don't expect assistance in a great rush

thanks
