Hi,

this call for papers and conference might be interesting for us:

  Free Culture between Commons and Markets: Approaching the Hybrid Economy?

  The Free Culture Research Conference presents a unique opportunity for
  scholars whose work contributes to the promotion, study or criticism of a
  Free Culture, to engage with a multidisciplinary group of academic peers
  and practitioners, identify the most important research opportunities and
  challenges, and attempt to chart the future of Free Culture.
  [...]
  It is hosted jointly by the Free University of Berlin and the Max Planck
  Institute for the Study of Societies and will take place at

  October 8-9, 2010 at the Free University Campus in Berlin,

  in collaboration with COMMUNIA, the European Network on the digital public
  domain. Funding and support is also provided by the Heinrich Böll
  Foundation.
