I don't know if we "won". The main contentious issues remain in the
law,
the author of the proposed law accuses Wikipedia of being

Larry
Sanger's campaign) and there is an ArbCom case brewing. The
Community will
be disrupted for weeks, because some people had decided to emulate
EnWiki
success skipping the due process and flex a political muscle.
The message has been understood clearly, as it was the case with
Italian law and SOPA. One thing is what a group of morons from a
lobby
group or a group inside of a ruling party could do, completely other
is what the government would do. Lobbyists and random dilettantes
won't deal with the consequences of clearly expressed opposition by
the wide specter of society.
Milos, do you have any evidence that what you have written is correct?
Just a single fact? So far the law was accepted in the second reading
basically unchanged, and is currently undergoing the third reading
(which is also expected to pass unchanged). The minister already
expressed full support of the law and disapproved the action of Russian
Wikipedia. What are your statements based on? On opinions of WM-Russia
who failed to take any action after the law passed the first reading on
July 6 but were of course happy to issue a statement after the decision
was taken on July 9?
Cheers
Yaroslav
