Incidentally, hearings on the proposed legislation are in progress. It
turns out that the House of Representatives were first out of the gate;
yesterday, David Trust, CEO of PPA, testified before the Subcommittee on
Courts, the Inernet, and Intellectual Property. His testimony, as well as
that of several others, is available at
http://judiciary.house.gov/oversight.aspx?ID=221.
It's obvious from PPA's proposal that they also see both sides of the
issue, and recognize that some changes are coming and photographers had
best deal with them.
