Today, Wikileaks has released a draft text of the Trans Pacific Partnership intellectual property chapter, dated May 14, 2014.  This is the most up-to-date source for the text, which is kept secret by negotiators, despite numerous calls for its release.  (The previous leak, upon which much of the recent TPP analysis was based, was from August 2013.)

The full text is available hereAlso see comments on it from Knowledge Ecology International, Public Citizen, Derechos Digitales, Association of Research Libraries,  Médecins Sans Frontières, Michael Geist, Margot Kaminski and a Wall Street Journal Story by Ed Silverman.  More to come soon!
