SANCHAAR Media Guide: A Recommended Language Manual For Improved Reporting On Sexual Minorities In India SANCHAAR Media Guide A Recommended Language Manual for Improved Reporting On Sexual Minorities in India SANCHAAR PROJECT 2015 The Humsafar Trust was supported by India HIV/AIDS Alliance, through Pehchan Innovations Fund GFATM Round 9 © The Humsafar Trust : First Edition. Year 2015. Version 1.0. The Humsafar Trust Page 1 SANCHAAR Media Guide: A Recommended Language Manual For Improved Reporting On Sexual Minorities In India FOREWORD The lexicon of same-sex relations in the human is sparsely populated. And that is not only because it was not understood but because it was stigmatised by religion and mainstream heterosexual society. Even today, the term “sodomy” and “catamites” are used in many legal documents and discourses in the USA and these were derived from Biblical texts. The first stirrings of movement on a rational basis to describe same-sex relations started in Europe a little before the region plunged into what are called World War I and World War II. Both were really wars fought by European Nation States and drew in both resources and knowledge from the colonies. Thus Edward Carpenter in England, Magnus Hirschfield in Germany, Havelock Ellis is Austria, all tried their hand at “naming” this phenomenon which was ancient in that they find mention in all human societies across the globe obviously making it a cross=species sexual behaviour. However, as the Upanishads say: “Defining reality or verbalising it – the’Vakas it is called in Sanskrit, took a very long time in secular sciences. -

Ochoa*** ABSTRACT 2016 marks the 25th anniversary of the Supreme Court’s opinion in Feist Publications, Inc. v. Rural Telephone Service Co., one of the Court’s landmark opinions in copyright law, and one that continues to define the standard of originality for copyrighted works in general and compilations of data in particular. The Feist case, however, was an unlikely candidate for landmark status. -

Concluding Remarks Amongst all the confusion and ambiguities with the database directive, especially with the sui generis part, one needs to re-visit the three options that the first evaluation report had suggested in the context of possible amendments to the Directive.1 The first proposal relates to the possibility of repealing database right, the second option is maintaining status quo and the third option is amending the current structure of the right.2 While first two options are not desirable, the third option is much more viable. The report proposed to repeal database right from the Directive.3 On a practical note, it will be difficult to execute such proposition. One must refer to the view expressed in the report itself. It considered the amount of resistance such action would face from European publishers.4 There may be additional legal uncertainty to roll back to the time when there was no database right in Europe. The implications would be felt mostly in Common Law jurisdictions.5 Based on high number of cases that have already been decided, the proposition of rolling back may increase uncertainty, instead of resolving concerns associated with database right.6 These observations indicate that it is difficult to reach a consensus to remove a piece of legislation.7 Therefore, repealing database right from the Directive is not an ideal option. 1‘DG Internal market and services working paper: First Evaluation of Directive 96/9/EC on the legal protection of databases’ (Commission of the European Communities, 12 December 2005) available at <http://ec.europa.eu/internal_market/copyright/docs/databases/evaluation_report_en.pdf> (accessed 31 October 2016) (First Evaluation of Directive 96/9/EC), para [6]. -

Samuelson Pamela IPSC Paper
t Functional Compilations Pamela Samuelson* Abstract At some level, every human-made creation is a compilation. Yet, most do not qualify for copyright protection because the selection and arrangement of their component parts is inherent in the functional purpose for which they were designed. The Supreme Court’s decision in Feist v. Rural Telephone Service established that works of authorship must be “original” to qualify for copyright protection and that originality requires a “modicum” of creativity. However, the Court did not say how much or what kind of creativity would satisfy this standard. In the years since Feist, courts have sometimes reJected compilation copyright claims because the compilation was too functional to be protectable. Sometimes they have relied upon copyright’s exclusions of methods and systems to say that a systematic or methodical selection and/or arrangement of information is uncopyrightable. Other times, they have invoked the merger doctrine, as when the selection and arrangement was dictated by functionality. Still other decisions have ruled that functional selections or arrangements lack the originality necessary to qualify for copyright protections. This Article intends to unify the functional compilation case law by pointing out that regardless of the doctrinal hooks or linguistic characterization that courts use, it is the functionality of these compilations that limits copyright. Functionality as a general basis for disqualifying some compilations from copyrights has not been widely recognized in the case law and law review literature. Some judges and commentators have reJected the idea that functionality is ever a limit on copyright (except maybe as to pictorial, graphic, and sculptural works whose expressive elements cannot be separated from functional elements). -

Judgment Template
Desktop Marketing Systems Pty Ltd v Telstra Corporation Limited [2002] FCAFC 112 FEDERAL COURT OF AUSTRALIA BLACK CJ, LINDGREN & SACKVILLE JJ BLACK CJ: 1 I agree that the appeal should be dismissed with costs for the reasons given by Lindgren J and Sackville J, and add the following observations. 2 Ground of appeal 14 was that the primary judge should have found, on the evidence, that Telstra’s industry: “was not in collecting but was principally and relevantly limited to receiving (as a matter of monopolistic entitlement), checking, maintaining and publishing data.” 3 This ground was developed in par 14 of Desktop’s outline written submissions, which, omitting footnotes and the references to them, was as follows: “In this case the Judge erred in holding that the Respondent had satisfied the ‘industrious collection’ test for subsistence of copyright because, on the evidence, such industry as there was on the part of the Respondent was not in collecting, but principally and relevantly limited to receiving (as a matter of statutory monopolistic entitlement) data. The whole basis of the so-called ‘industrious collection’ approach is to protect the industry of a party from a commercially unfair free ride by copyists. There is no free ride here. All ‘industrious collection’ cases (especially those relied upon by Telstra) were ones where: (a) the copyist could have, with sufficient industry, replicated the database. That is not so here. No amount of industry could replicate the Telstra database because of the privileged position Telstra enjoys in granting lines and telephone numbers on the condition that the subscriber proves such information and updates it as requested. -
