Subject: Noon Monday 6 August 2001: Rally to Free Dmitry Sklyarov

Noon Monday 6 August 2001 at 41st Street and Fifth Avenue, before the
New York Public Library, on the Island of Manhattan, there will be a rally
to free Dmitry Sklyarov.

Note that this is not an LXNY event, but rather the third of a series of
rallies, whose Lead Organizer and First Contact is

Leonid Gorkin

There have been and will be rallies in about twenty cities.

Why do we rally at the New York Public Library?  Because the Association of
American Publishers has declared that they plan to close down all free
public libraries.  Their chosen tool is the Digital Millennium Copyright Act.
The DMCA outlaws fair use of books that you, or the library, have bought
and paid for:

We need marchers and leafleteers and copiers of leaflets and designers of
leaflets and propagandizers and lobbyists and lawyers and coders and water
carriers and publicists and diplomats.  Come to the Rally and help!  Come
to the Rally and meet allies!

Dmitry Sklyarov sits in jail today.  Come to the Rally and help get him
out!
