Great list.

My own work, Transactions of Virtual Items in Virtual Worlds, is a little delayed but is published this month.

Assuming the publisher keeps the same pagination as the proof they sent me, the new correct citation will be:

Michael H. Passman, Transactions of Virtual Items in Virtual Worlds, 18 ALB. L. J. SCI. & TECH 101 (2008)

An excellent recent article on IP issues in virtual worlds:

Its a great list. In the first time search on Westlaw (using key terms virtual world) i was not able to get all the articles that you have listed.

By the way, I think you have left below mentioned two articles:

* Beth Simone Noveck, The State Of Play1 N.Y.L. Sch. L. Rev. 1 (2004-2005)

* Matthew Lee, Online Role Play Games: The Legal Response, Hertfordshire Law Journal 4(2), 72-80, available at http://perseus.herts.ac.uk/uhinfo/library/f58673_3.pdf

What a great list-I can’t wait to read #62. I’ll be on the lookout for others.
