by Pirate Praveen 30 Sep '14

30 Sep '14

Diego Gomez, a Colombian graduate student, currently faces up to eight years in prison for doing something thousands of researchers do every day: posting research results online for those who would not otherwise have a way to access them. http://news.sciencemag.org/latin-america/2014/07/colombian-grad-student-fac… Please sign this petition https://act.eff.org/action/let-s-stand-together-to-promote-open-access-worl… Also we need to have a continuous campaign to make people realize how we are still denied access to knowledge. Indian Pirates are starting a campaign called "Ekalavya to Aaron Swartz - access (to knowledge) denied" https://www.loomio.org/d/igPz5ORr/ekalavya-to-aaron-swartz-access-to-knowle… Hoping to get all your support. As one concrete step, we should translate Aaron Swartz Guerilla Open Access Manifesto to all Indian languages. http://openaccessmanifesto.org/ Please let me know if you can help with the translation in any language.
