[bestbits] Brussels Principles on Medication Sales over the Internet

[Jeremy Malcolm]

I would like to draw everyone's attention to the Brussels Principles on
Medication Sales over the Internet, a document that came out of a
RightsCon workshop that I was involved with.  It is about balancing the
needs for affordability, accessibility and safety of medicines that are
sold online.  I have personally endorsed the petition, even though EFF
isn't able to do so because it goes too far outside our issue areas. 
Nevertheless I thought that I should bring it to attention of Best Bits
participants because I'm sure some others of you might wish to endorse
or circulate it:

If you are interested I can also put you in touch with the other authors
of the document so that you can get more information or become involved
in related activities.
