To Cory Doctorow: I recently finished Pirate Cinema after getting it from the previous bundle. A part from an exciting story with lots of cool set-pieces and great ideas, squatting, friganism, anarchists and great heists, I must say I will miss the Jammie Dodgers. It's been a while since I've grown so fond of characters. Any chance of seeing them again in the future?

I also found it cool that the Green Party was mentioned so often, being a Green Youth in Norway hoping to help my party enter parliament in this autumn's election. In Norway digital rights are an important subject for the Greens, and there are but few parties other than us (none of which in power) caring about ensuring a free internet and good ways for artists to make money. (The old mastodonts, Labour and Conservative, are pretty similar when it comes to file-sharing, with a recent law from Labour making it easier to prosecute "those pesky infringers".) My hopes are that the Green Party will be voice in parliament, but also a people's voice, as of now everyone seems to be ignoring the problem, as is the case it seems in most of Europe.

How do you feel about the Green Party in the UK? (It seems they're good guys) Do you think they'll win more power from the old dinosaurs someday?

Lastly: I look forward to reading more of your works, and was delighted to find Little Brother translated to norwegian at my local library. But I'm delighted to have gotten is through this bundle too, as I love concept of bundles, and the concept of literature, and was delighted to see the two come together last autumn. I dream of the day when concepts like this are more common, and I can't wait to read these books.
