The rest of the week
Various things happened; I went to Berkeley and got the new LNX-BBC project machine up (called "gar"). (Thanks, Joe.) I saw Brian and Michelle while I was over there.
Unfortunately, I then got sick, and have been home sick. Nick came to visit and talked to me about the BBC, and we made a huge amount of progress toward getting organized for future releases.
But the really big deal for this week is that Dmitry Sklyarov is free and will go home to Russia! Congratulations to Dmitry, his family, his lawyers, and all the activists who kept up pressure and attention on this case. It seems that the publicity and pressure was really very significant -- since at the beginning, Adobe, the AAP, and the USAO all seemed convinced that it was necessary for Dmitry to go to jail, and to serve a long prison sentence.
I'm hoping there will be a party on Wednesday to celebrate Dmitry's return home.
Now my question is: Who will be the next person to Get Caught Reading?
