Re: W3C [PBG] Publishing Business Group Agenda December 2024

Hi, 

I won't be able to participate in this call (I'll be in Bruxelles to discuss TDM opt-out with other copyright owners and AI actors).  

You'll find an up-to-date list of known adopters of TDM Rep at https://w3c.github.io/tdm-reservation-protocol/docs/adopters.html .

So far, the prominent AI actors have yet to start obeying these rules. This puts them in an illegal position vs. Article 4 of the EU CDSM, but I didn't hear about legal actions from publishers on this ground. It may change after the start of the EU AI Directive. See https://w3c.github.io/tdm-reservation-protocol/docs/eu-act-extracts.html. 

Re. DRM and Accessibility, as you know, is of great interest to EDRLab. Happy to have a separate discussion. 

Best regards
Laurent
