People care about the Telecoms Package

Sitting in a web ‘n’ politics conference in Barcelona, I see how fired up these guys are about the internet-related aspects of the Telecoms Package. Efforts to lobby the European Parliament by the international online community are used as examples of successful campaign by two speakers (him and him). These people present the EP as the open, democratic (influenceable) part of the system, with the Council cast as the opaque, behind-closed-doors part of the system, beyond democracy. Obviously, I enjoy hearing this bit.
