… and with your list of “leading copyright scholars” not one signatory to the Max Planck / Munich Declaration on the 3-Step Test although Professor Samuelson in particular is on the Board of Directors of Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF.org) which believes in recent published Joint Statements that such wording should be part and parcel of every International Treaty or Agreement.
