Thanks to IP Watch for details of new (and lengthy) US TR report.

Although these challenges move slowly, they are a significant threat to all countries, particularly those exploring the (possible?) exceptions in TRIPS. An area we are exploring in another project http://freetrade.opencontentlaw.org/
