Abstract (at least 300 words to describe your proposal)

Wikimedia, QuestionCopyright.Org and Creative Commons have been partnering to create a Free Culture Trust. In this session, Karen will discuss plans for the Trust and report on progress so far. WikiCon will be a month after our organizational meeting which will be a good time to invite participation from the community.

Length of presentation/talk (see Presentation Types for lengths of different presentation types)

A 15 minute talk would be great, or it could be a longer session with group discussion. This could also be done as a panel, and several of the key organizers are based in New York.

Will you attend WikiConference USA if your submission is not accepted?

Most likely.

Slides or further information (optional)

Special request as to time of presentations

I have very limited availability on May 31.
