11. A game of GeoDRM - purpose
To understand the roles and responsibilities within a GeoDRM network
To separate the logic of managing IP from the content of the IP
To use a simplified game to simulate the real-world problem
To make the abstract problem of digital rights management more understandable in concrete terms
To feed the results of the scenario game playing into the definition of the GeoDRM Reference Model

12. Imagine yourself transported into the GeoDRM universe
No longer the normal three dimensions – but the intellectual property dimensions of rights, space and time…
You are now an intellectual property magnate dealing in the rights to access information. A bit like rental agreements in the real world.
You could directly licence individual users to access “blocks” of intellectual property, or it may be easier to delegate licensing responsibility to intermediaries
Licence management is the process of ensuring a user’s information request falls inside that user’s licence extents

What worked?
What did not work?
How can we make it simpler?
What other actors are needed?
What other props are needed?
How representative is this of the real world?
