(NON-)BREAKING NEWS (and a mystery): video framing not copyright infringement

What's the mystery behind BestWater?

There are two forthcoming decisions of the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) that this Kat has been keenly awaiting following the ambiguities cast by the decision earlier this year in Svensson [here and here].

The first one is C More Entertainment [linking by means of paywall circumvention] and the second one is BestWater [here, framing of videos]. 

This is why the calendar of CJEU activities has been carefully monitored (in vain) for months, without any hints as to possible dates for these decisions or at least [although less likely, considering that Svensson itself was decided without one] opinions of Advocates General being provided.

Now, via @Loeffel_Abrar, comes the news [with link to the German text] that the CJEU appears to have handed down its decision in BestWater on 21 October last, ruling that video framing is not an infringement of the right of communication to the public within Article 3(1) of the InfoSoc Directve:

"Die Einbettung eines auf einer Website öffentlich zugänglichen geschützten Werkes in eine andere Website mittels eines Links unter Verwendung der Framing- Technik, wie sie im Ausgangsverfahren in Frage steht, allein stellt keine öffentliche Wiedergabe im Sinne von Art. 3 Abs. 1 der Richtlinie 200l/29/EG des Europäischen Parlaments und des Rates vom 22. Mai 2001 zur Harmonisierung bestimmter Aspekte des Urheberrechts und der verwandten Schutzrechte in der Informationsgesellschaft dar, soweit das betreffende Werk weder für ein neues Publikum noch nach einem speziellen technischen Verfahren wiedergegeben wird, das sich von demjenigen der ursprünglichen Wiedergabe unterscheidet."

A more detailed analysis of this decision will follow soon.

In the meantime, a few questions arise:

1) Why was the case not listed in the CJEU calendar?

2) Why, if you search for "Case C-348/13", this entry is listed as non-existent (not even the preliminary questions are available and - no need to say - there are no press releases available either)?

3) Is the one posted the final decision or just a draft?
