-"<quote>America needs a national conversation about the way in which "
-"so-called <quote>intellectual property rights</quote> have come to dominate "
-"the rights of scholars, researchers, and everyday citizens. A copyright "
-"cartel, bidding for absolute control over digital worlds, music, and movies, "
-"now has a veto over technological innovation and has halted most "
-"contributions to the public domain from which so many have benefited. The "
-"patent system has spun out of control, giving enormous power to entrenched "
-"interests, and even trademarks are being misused. Lawrence Lessig's latest "
-"book is essential reading for anyone who want to join this conversation. He "
-"explains how technology and the law are robbing us of the public domain; but "
-"for all his educated pessimism, Professor Lessig offers some solutions, too, "
-"because he recognizes that technology can be the catalyst for freedom. If "
-"you care about the future of innovation, read this book.</quote> — "

-"This edition of <citetitle>Free Culture</citetitle> is the result of three "
-"years of volunteer work. The idea came from a discussion I had around ten "
-"years ago with a friend about the copyright debate in Norway, and how rarely "
-"the difficulties of long copyright made it into the public debate. A bit "
-"more than three years ago I finally had a look again at the idea and decided "
-"to publish a printed Norwegian Bokmål version of <citetitle>Free "
-"Culture</citetitle>, translated and formatted by volunteers. The new "
-"English edition is a by-product of the translation process."

-"Thanks to the Debian Edu / Skolelinux project, I already had experience "
-"translating Docbook documents, and it seemed like a good format for this "
-"book too. I found a Docbook formatted version of the book created by Hans "
-"Schou. Initial testing showed lots of Docbook validation errors in this "
-"version, but after some work I was able to transform it to PDF and EPUB. "
-"This was the start of the translation project. The Docbook file improved "
-"over time, and build rules were added to create both English and Bokmål "
-"versions. Finally, a call for volunteers went out to help me with the "
