From the law school conference circuit: the Digital Rights Management meeting at UC Berkeley School of Law that wrapped up Saturday is featured in an article in CNET. Audio recordings of most of the conference sessions are already online from Berkeley; video footage should follow shortly.

New on law professors' weblogs Sunday: Jack Balkin of Yale Law School is keeping his eye on Patriot Act II.
