“Here’s a followup from Richard Stallman regarding his
statements on Dmitry Sklyarov’s deal with the U.S. Department of
Justice.‘Since then, people have told me that the situation is
more complicated; that his testimony won’t necessarily help the
prosecution much, and that the deal will make it easier for ELCOM
to argue its case. I’m glad to hear that things are not as bad as
they looked. So I withdraw my criticism of Sklyarov for making the
deal, and I apologize if I misjudged its nature.'”
