Date: Fri, 27 Jul 2001 11:06:20 -0700 To: dmitry-plan@eff.org EFF Rejoins Protests After Meeting with US Attorney's Office Representatives of the Electronic
Frontier Foundation (EFF) met with representatives of the U.S. Attorney's
office in San Francisco today. There was a productive dialog, however
the U.S. Attorney's office gave no indication of dropping the prosecution
against Dmitry Sklyarov. Having explored good faith negotiations, the Electronic Frontier Foundation
rejoins the call for nonviolent protests worldwide to secure the immediate
release of Dmitry Sklarov and dropping of all criminal charges against
him. A protest is already scheduled in San Francisco for 11:30am this Monday,
July 30, at the Federal Courthouse at 450 Golden Gate Ave. Additional
protests will occur in 25 or more cities worldwide in coming weeks. NOTE: Will Doherty will be out of the office until August 8, so please
