[free-sklyarov] Counter-Terminology Poll

[Michael L. Love]

Thanks for this good idea, and it will be interesting to see the 
results.  It will be useful to standardize, but it will also be helpful 
to have a glossary of helpful terminology that can be creatively used 
according to the needs of the situation.

Incidentally, GNU-Darwin has been covering the situation for 10 days, 
and we supported the boycott.  We provide hundreds of software downloads 
to the Darwin and Mac OSX communities, and we get thousands of page 
views every day.  We have not had a single complaint about the boycott 
or the FREE Dmitry coverage, so it appears that we are reaching a broad 
base of support.  Prospects: hopeful.  It seems to me that through the 
combined efforts of everyone on this list, we should be able to 
marginalize the DMCA supporters, and restore freedom.

I just wish that there was something more immediate that we could do to 
FREE Dmitry right now.
